SonicWall Partner XimpleIT Deploys Cloud Secure Edge to Deliver Zero Trust Security to Legal Industry Clients

Colorado-based MSP replaces legacy VPN infrastructure with Zero Trust architecture after client breach, delivering enterprise-grade protection to law firms

MILPITAS, Calif., June 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SonicWall today announced that XimpleIT, a Colorado-based managed service provider (MSP) specializing in legal industry clients, has deployed SonicWall Cloud Secure Edge to deliver Zero Trust Network Access across its customer base of law firms of all sizes. The deployment replaces legacy VPN infrastructure that left legal clients exposed to credential-based attacks and lateral movement, replacing it with identity-aware, policy-enforced access that treats every connection as untrusted by default.

The engagement began when a regional law firm approached XimpleIT following a breach caused by an unpatched legacy VPN. The incident exposed a fundamental security gap common across the legal industry: as client work migrated to cloud-based applications and hybrid environments, the underlying security architecture had not followed. Legacy VPN access provided attackers a binary point of entry, once inside, there was no further enforcement, no segmentation and no visibility into where a compromised credential had traveled.

XimpleIT recognized that the legal industry operates under a dangerous assumption: that because work has moved to cloud-based applications, security is largely handled. In practice, distributed workforces, overseas contractors, SaaS platforms, and remote collaboration tools are not secure by default. When combined with hybrid environments and expanding attack surfaces, the result is significant exposure with minimal visibility and even less control.

By deploying SonicWall Cloud Secure Edge, XimpleIT replaced that model with Zero Trust architecture that verifies both user identity and device before granting access, eliminating implicit trust and preventing lateral movement across client environments. The platform delivers granular access controls, continuous monitoring and the centralized visibility that law firms handling sensitive client records and privileged communications require, without the operational overhead that makes enterprise security impractical at SMB scale.

“Having somebody, a real person, who checks in regularly, provides assistance implementing new solutions, and helps us win deals is a big differentiator. That is rare,” said Juan Serna, Founder and IT Director, XimpleIT. “SonicWall gives us the platform and the partnership to walk into a law firm and tell them, with confidence, that their data is protected, not just monitored.”

That confidence is not incidental. It is the product of a security architecture that actually holds up under scrutiny, backed by a vendor relationship that treats the MSP as a business partner rather than a transaction. For XimpleIT, that combination has become a competitive advantage in a vertical where trust is the currency, and the cost of getting security wrong is measured in client relationships, not just downtime.

“XimpleIT represents exactly what the MSP opportunity looks like when a partner invests in the right architecture and the right relationships,” said Michael Crean, Senior Vice President of Managed Services at SonicWall. “The legal industry is a high-value target, as it contains sensitive information, client records, financial data, privileged communications – and attackers understand what is at stake. XimpleIT understood that legacy perimeter models were not built for this environment and made the decision to fix that before the next breach, not after.”

The legal industry is not an isolated case. Across regulated and risk-sensitive verticals, MSPs are rethinking how security gets delivered, and deployments like XimpleIT’s reflect that shift in real terms. The legal industry, increasingly targeted by ransomware operators who recognize the value of the data involved, cannot rely on architectures designed for a perimeter that no longer exists. Zero Trust, delivered through a managed platform, closes that gap while giving firms of all sizes access to enterprise-grade controls they could not otherwise afford or operate independently.

MARRAKECH, Morocco, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The International Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities (IAACA), an independent and non-political anti-corruption organisation with over 190 member anti-corruption authorities (ACAs) worldwide, will co-host IAACA Annual Conference 2026 in Marrakech, Morocco next month together with the Independent Commission Against Corruption of Hong Kong, China (ICAC) and the National Authority for Probity, Prevention and Fight Against Corruption of Morocco (INPPLC) to chart a path for the global graft fight and explore cutting-edge approaches to tackle emerging corruption challenges.

Themed “Building on 20 Years of Legacy: Drawing Strength from the Past, Guarding Global Integrity for the Future”, the international event will not only mark the 20th anniversary of the IAACA, but also provide a dynamic forum for IAACA members to exchange insights and enhance co-operation.

Calling on international counterparts to participate in the conference scheduled for November 25, IAACA President Mr Woo Ying-ming, who also serves as ICAC Commissioner, said that “As the IAACA marks its 20th anniversary, the conference will bring together global anti-corruption community at a pivotal moment for collective action. I anticipate that the valuable insights and new approaches generated through the international synergy will chart a resilient strategic path for us to navigate integrity risks and draw strength from our shared legacy to guard global integrity for generations to come.”

During the conference, renowned international experts from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), Basel Institute on Governance, the International Anti-Corruption Academy, and global anti-corruption and law enforcement agencies and institutions will shed light on harnessing artificial intelligence in the fight against corruption, safeguarding integrity within global climate and biodiversity frameworks and analysing global corruption measurement and systemic effectiveness.

Following the conference, the ICAC, the INPPLC, the IAACA and the UNODC will co-organise a training seminar on leveraging AI in combating corruption.

While the ICAC and INPPLC will share how AI and new technology can reshape the future of anti-graft enforcement and corruption prevention, the UNODC will provide a global perspective on using AI models in financial crime investigations and addressing the operational relevance, legal robustness and adaptability across jurisdictions.

Viettel moves 100 million subscribers to home-grown cloud-native charging in three months – with zero downtime

HANOI, Vietnam, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Viettel High Technology Industries Corporation (Viettel High Tech), part of Viettel Group, has migrated more than 100 million subscribers and some 5,000 tariff plans at Viettel, Vietnam’s largest mobile operator, to vOCS 4.0, its in-house cloud-native charging system. The three-month cutover ran on a live national network with no service disruption.

Replacing a charging system is one of the riskiest projects an operator can undertake, which is why many stick with legacy platforms. Viettel High Tech reduced the risk through real-time data synchronization, parallel running and a phased cutover, with instant rollback at every stage.

The project won the Telecom Review Excellence Awards 2026 prize for Best Technology Deployment in Asia, a first for a Vietnamese company.

What it means for operators:

Scale: more than 300,000 transactions per second at latency below 5 milliseconds, across 2G–5G and fixed services on one platformLower cost: up to 50% less hardware investment than the previous generation, by sharing infrastructure with the networkAgility: new tariff plans in hours instead of days, new features three times faster and deployments about 30% fasterResilience: two active data centers about 2,000 km apart and automatic recovery in under two minutes

Viettel High Tech developed every core layer in-house, from a telecom-grade cloud-native platform and NFV-MANO orchestration to real-time charging, subscriber and balance management.

“Passing rigorous tests of real-time self-diagnosis and self-recovery is what allows an operator to keep its promise of 24/7 service to customers,” said Luu Manh Ha, CEO of Viettel Networks, which operates the system on Viettel’s network in Vietnam. “Above all, owning the charging system means an operator is not dependent on foreign vendors – it safeguards digital sovereignty and preserves business flexibility.”

“The charging system is where an operator’s business strategy turns into revenue in real time,” said Nguyen Minh Quang, CEO of Viettel High Tech. “We believe vOCS 4.0 is ready to help operators worldwide capture the value of 5G and digital services.”

In 2017, vOCS 4.0’s predecessor, vOCS 3.0, replaced a foreign vendor’s platform for 90 million Viettel subscribers. Across both generations, vOCS serves more than 220 million subscribers in 11 countries. Viettel High Tech now offers vOCS 4.0 to operators worldwide.
