We pride ourselves on our methodology and toolset which result in data-driven contextual insights. Our Cloud Discovery team are specialists in delivering executable cloud strategies tailored to our customers. No more guesswork. No wasteful overprovisioning. Just knowing that you’re making the best decisions for tangible business results.
Cloud Landing Zone
Land on a solid platform to build your cloud infrastructure
Having a best practice cloud environment configured and baselined is the first step in preparing to build new apps, or move existing ones to the cloud. By getting the structures in place at the start, your business can operate and scale at pace without second-guessing yourself or looking over your shoulder for problems to start occurring. Our cloud landing zones are built to very latest vendor best practices, coupled with our depth of experience to get the right design for your needs whether you’re a startup, a corporate or a government agency.

Our service uniquely provides both support for day-to-day operations, while we maintain a backlog of enhancements and proactively improve your cloud environment month by month.
Cloud App Modernization
Bringing your Apps into the cloud era
Your organisation, like many, likely has a raft of applications spanning from decades of IT practice. Call them monoliths, or label them as technical debt, they are likely costly, complex in nature, and stifle the type of innovation businesses look for with digital services.
Our Cloud App Modernization takes the business value in these applications, such as the processes and data you have built up over years, and replatforms them on cloud native services, opening them up to opportunities to innovate and optimize, while reducing costs and risk. We work closely with your team to identify candidates for modernization that align with business goals, and deliver a demonstrable return on investment.
By bringing your apps into the cloud era, we bring new life to tired systems.
Data Platforms & Analytics
Secure and scalable data services
Unlocking valuable data in your business can provide immediate benefits and impact. Rather than focusing on industry lingo like “big data” which often comes at a big cost, our data services take the approach of starting small with subsets of business data and realistic use cases. Using Infrastructure as Code and DataOps practices, we are able to rapidly establish a platform that provides a catalogue for business users to consume for analytics and intelligence or functionality for applications or APIs. Security and governance processes can be baked right into the catalogues for confidence that you have your business data under control.
Private & Hybrid Cloud
Meeting local need with global capability
Our private and hybrid cloud solutions provide maximum flexibility where you aren’t yet ready to go all in on public cloud. Whether you have application constraints, licensing challenges or need to use capital expenditure, our solutions will provide you a solution for today, with a pathway to the future. Whether they are built and hosted by us (as-a-Service) or handed over to your operational team, you are provided a robust solution, that is pre-designed to enable you to burst into public cloud for capacity or specialised services that you can’t build yourself.
If your business needs a strategy that bridges the gap between where you need to be today, and where you want to be tomorrow, our private and hybrid cloud solutions provide the perfect mix.

Security
Data no longer resides on-premise allowing users and end customers to be truly mobile. Services are available anywhere, documents can be easily shared for collaboration. Users are connecting directly to cloud services with no need to route through on-premise infrastructure. As a result, organisations are required to think differently about how both their users and applications are secured.
The Instillery’s security suite has been designed to face today’s security challenges using best in breed toolsets and insights to provide a total package for our customers.
Want to learn about our approach to security? See here.
Cloud Web Security
Protect your users anywhere
Cloud has enabled a mobile workforce and employees can now work from anywhere – from different time zones to different devices. As a result, targeting end-users has become a common means of compromising IT systems.
As the internet becomes the new corporate network, organisations should be able to ensure network security moves with users. Put a perimeter around your users, and with the most advanced cloud security platform available.
Cloud WAF
Secure your critical services
An organisation’s web presence is often the first port of call for potential customers, with online stores, web applications and self service websites increasingly becoming the norm for doing business. With our cloud web application firewall, organisations benefit from security and increased performance to ensure your customers have a secure and reliable experience.
Security includes the application level intelligence to block common threats, as well as DDOS mitigation. Built as a cloud service, DDOS attacks are able to be mitigated as close as possible to the point of origin, and have been able to withstand attacks of multi-hundred Gbps. This architecture also means the services offer the benefits of a Content Delivery Network, providing customers improved performance no matter where they are in the world.
Public Cloud Security
Enhance AWS, Azure and GCP security
A security strategy is an integral part of planning a move to public cloud. The temptation can be to try and replicate existing security systems although data is no longer in your data centre. Often this can be detrimental to cost, efficiency, performance and security.
Public cloud providers offer some very real benefits by taking responsibility for protecting the infrastructure that runs all the cloud services. In other areas they have provided native features that allow for powerful, granular security control for both network security and Identity and Access Management.
Secure Remote Access
Connect users to their apps without the VPN
VPNs were invented to provide remote access to private apps, and did this by connecting users to a network - generally the office or a local data centre. With private apps running in multiple cloud platforms and data centres, and the need for more granular policy driven controls, this approach no longer meets the modern security or user experience demands.
With Zscaler Private Access for zero-trust remote access, access to private apps is governed by policies defining which users can access which applications, regardless what network either party resides on. Further to this, as ZPA works through outbound established connections, there is no longer a requirement to have a publicly exposed VPN endpoint, allowing your data centres to go dark to would-be-attackers.
Zscaler
NZ’s leading Zscaler Partner
As the only organisation in NZ that is certified to do deployments on Zscaler’s behalf and the 2019 Zscaler NZ Partner of the Year, The Instillery are your local Zscaler experts. Having worked with many of NZ’s leading organisations such as Auckland Council, Watercare and Financial Markets Authority, we have extensive experience in designing, deploying and operating highly scalable, Zscaler solutions across complex environments.
As a Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader 10 years in a row and trusted by 450 of the Forbes Global 2000, Zscaler provide the only zero trust platform that securely connects any user, any device and any app over any network.

Zero Trust Network Access
Provide access to your applications, not your entire network
Zero Trust Network Access is built on the principle of least-privileged access where no user or application is inherently trusted. Instead, they are provided with only the most granular access required to perform their function.
Traditionally IT security models have granted access to applications and data by implied trust - users are able to access a network and therefore they are able to access applications and data on that network, broadening the attack surface and allowing for lateral movement after a breach occurs.
The traditional method also had flaws with experience as the users had to rely on connection tools like a VPN for remote access which is both cumbersome and creates yet again another attack vector.
The Instillery is New Zealand’s leading Zscaler partner and provider of Zero Trust solutions. We believe that zero trust extends beyond users connecting to applications and identifying and controlling how applications communicate with each other, and how multi-cloud, hybrid cloud and branches integrate into this solution.
The rapid increase of Work-From-Anywhere has accelerated Zero Trust adoption, broken down misconceptions and overcame objections. We specialise in integrating zero trust into your existing network, providing roadmaps to enhance your posture over time and implementing strategies such as strict isolation for legacy network segments that are not immediately able to adopt a zero-trust posture. For others, we can help you ditch the corporate WAN altogether!
