Through the years, QNET and Microsoft <\/a>have driven significant digital transformation<\/a> in QNET\u2019s IT infrastructure, creating a more seamless, secure, and efficient online experience for distributors and customers worldwide. This partnership has prioritised robust data protection and cybersecurity measures, ensuring that your online security is always at the forefront so you can carry out your business activities with peace of mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Enhanced Functions Has This QNET and Microsoft Partnership Enabled?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Enhancing QNET\u2019s IT infrastructure has involved streamlining solutions to meet and exceed expectations for a secure and stable experience. With a full overhaul of our security systems. QNET and Microsoft have tackled many of the common problems facing e-commerce platforms and apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some of the most notable improvements QNET users can benefit from today:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No Downtime<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the highlights of this digital infrastructure transformation is the commitment to zero downtime, meaning you can access the QNET website, QNET Virtual Office, and QNET eStore without interruptions. The user interface and backend tools have been powered up to make your online experience more stable, efficient, and consistently accessible.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Increased Online Security<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the QNET and Microsoft infrastructure upgrades, the QNET IT security team can proactively detect and neutralise online threats before they impact users. With continuous improvements, we\u2019re extremely confident in providing a secure digital space to browse, check on your status, do a bit of shopping, and so much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Streamlined Identity Management and Access Control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As QNET has expanded globally, so has its cloud infrastructure, presenting new security challenges that require advanced tools to manage access permissions and protect user identities. With the introduction of Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft Sentinel, and other Microsoft security solutions, QNET has gained unprecedented visibility and control over its systems. These tools allow for precise control of permissions and identity-based access, ensuring that only the right individuals can access sensitive areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIdentity management and access control are vital as we scale,\u201d says James Eduard Andaya, Security Operations Team Lead at QNET. \u201cWith Microsoft Entra and Conditional Access, we\u2019re able to set strict parameters around access, keeping our users\u2019 data safe and secure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cutting-Edge Security Measures with Microsoft Sentinel and Copilot for Security<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

QNET\u2019s enhanced security measures now feature Microsoft Sentinel, which centralises threat detection, analysis, and response. With AI and automation, Microsoft Sentinel streamlines how the security operations centre (SOC) manages threats, making threat remediation faster and more efficient. Microsoft Copilot for Security further strengthens this effort, enabling analysts to detect, analyse, and neutralise threats with ease. According to Andaya, \u201cAs early adopters of Microsoft Copilot for Security, we report up to 40 per cent time savings and a 60 per cent increase in efficiency for our security teams.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Enhanced Threat Response Capabilities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With the integrated Microsoft tools, QNET\u2019s SOC team has transformed its approach to incident response. Andaya highlights that \u201cour secure score jumped from 42 per cent to 73 per cent,\u201d indicating a significant boost in QNET\u2019s security posture, especially in managing endpoint and identity security\u2014key areas often targeted by cyberattacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>The Future of Security at QNET<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Embracing a Zero Trust framework, QNET has laid a solid foundation for security that prioritises verification and proactive threat detection. The use of AI-powered tools like Copilot for Security is allowing QNET to accelerate data analysis and streamline security operations, ensuring a safer future for the company\u2019s growing digital infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
