Mail & Collaboration Transformation
What is it all about?
Our Mail & Collaboration Transformation service is designed to modernize, migrate, and secure your email and collaboration environments. Whether your infrastructure is on-premises, in the cloud, or a hybrid of both, we provide end-to-end solutions that minimize downtime, enhance security, and optimize performance.
Our expertise in related security solutions will help to protect mail and collaboration infrastructure against modern threats in accordance to industry best practices, ensuring the integrity, confidentiality and availability of your communications. DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance), DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail), and SPF (Sender Policy Framework) ensure your emails are authenticated and protected against spoofing and phishing attacks while Anti-Spam and Anti-Malware solutions will keep your email channels free of malicious content.
Are you sure that your company’s DMARC policy is in line with global and country-specific DMARC requirements?

Moving Forward
All our Transformation projects always start from a Discovery phase which will collect detailed information about current email/collaboration environment, customization and volumetrics. This phase enables the definition of the migration scope in collaboration with business stakeholders by reviewing email data usage, workflows and custom configurations to develop a migration and replacement strategy.
As a tangible outcome of this stage, you will get a comprehensive migration plan with timelines committed by GDC Services as well as high level FMO (Future Mode of Operations) design which will represent the target state of planned migration.
