Rambunct enabled PercivalEng to modernize cybersecurity operations with AWS WorkSpaces pooling and Microsoft Entra SAML integration—delivering secure, high-performance virtual desktops for reverse engineering and vulnerability research.
The Challenge
PercivalEng, serving sensitive government and industrial clients, faced infrastructure and security challenges that limited agility. Demands for specialized tools, strict data controls, and complex access management made it hard to scale secure environments efficiently.
- High-performance tooling needs for tasks like vulnerability research and malware analysis, requiring preloaded licensed tools.
- Strict security and compliance demands, including air-gapped setups, auditability, and sensitive data protection.
- Scalability issues in rapidly provisioning secure environments for resource-intensive workloads.
- Complex identity management due to varying clearance levels and need for SSO, MFA, and role-based access via Microsoft Entra.
Our Solution
The solution leverages AWS WorkSpaces and AppStream to provide secure, scalable setups for cybersecurity and embedded systems research. Automated provisioning and strict access controls enable efficient, compliant collaboration.
