Since 1997, Plato has been providing specialized IT services and solutions in many jurisdictions throughout North America. As a proven industry leader with a solid reputation, we provide extensive consulting expertise primarily to governments, healthcare organizations, public agencies and crown corporations, and large private sector organizations. A key indicator of the success of a consulting company is the type and tenure of its clients, as well as the amount of repeat business. As one example, we are currently the second biggest supplier of IT consulting services to the Government of Newfoundland - Labrador, and have been for upwards of 4 years. Plato has also been ISO certified since 2003, ensuring the delivery of consistent and superior quality service. Plato has built three interrelated core practice areas on corporate expertise and project experience, and a complement of highly qualified and seasoned consultants. Our core practice areas include: 1. Enterprise Integration Services (EIS)
2. Enterprise Networks - Security (ENS)
3. Data Lifecycle Management - Security (DLMS)
Plato has established an impressive track record of delivering high quality systems integration services to large public, health care and private sector organizations through our flagship Enterprise Integration Services practice. We have vast integration expertise with a range of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) solutions, including ERP, CRM, Case Management and Electronic Health Record (EHR) applications, as well as middleware products, applications and tools.
Plato€™s Enterprise Networks practice covers the full lifecycle with services designed to assist clients from network assessments and enterprise network planning/design through to the implementation of leading edge functionality and network operation management. Our reliable Enterprise Networks practice focuses primarily on LAN, WAN, Internet, Wireless (802.11), and Voice over IP (VoIP). As an independent consulting vendor, Plato can provide objective analysis and technology recommendations. We employ enterprise network consultants with Cisco and Juniper networking and security certifications, as well as ISC and SANS Institute certifications. We can also assist in sourcing a variety of technologies through vendor and reseller network.
Through its industry knowledge, security-related expertise and appreciation for the power of leading edge technologies, Plato offers a consulting services framework to actively monitor networks for security gaps, and to prevent or reduce associated risks. Our services include the identification of gaps in a client€™s infrastructure, prioritized actionable steps to remediate such gaps, hardware platform and operating system/version reviews, analysis of firewall and access structures, assessments of current and appropriate business practices and policies, and recommendations for any improvements. Our services are focused primarily on assisting customers improve their risk management and satisfy compliance needs by reducing threats to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of business operations and information.
Data Lifecycle Management and Security encompasses the treatment and management of data as a valuable enterprise resource. Plato has developed strong expertise in the use and protection of electronic information from an administrative, usage, flow and protection (e.g. compliance, regulation) perspective. Plato€™s sister company, Camouflage Software Inc ., has developed one of the world€™s leading data masking and data classification software products. While Camouflage sells the software as a licensable product, Plato offers data masking as a service in conjunction with its deep expertise in the use of the tool, as well as data masking lifecycle best practices.
Founded in 1997, Plato Group Inc. is a Canadian based professional IT consulting and software development firm. The company has been providing IT consulting services for healthcare and government organizations, public agencies and private sector clients throughout North America. Plato€™s consulting services are focused in the areas of project and information management; strategic IT planning; business process re-engineering; change management; and Enerprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. Plato€™s flagship software product, Camouflage®, is an enterprise-level data masking software application designed to protect sensitive information from data theft, and to facilitate data privacy through compliance with privacy policies and legislation. To ensure the delivery of consistent and superior quality service, Plato€™s Quality Management System is registered to ISO 9001:2000 standards.
Camouflage® is used to mask copies of production databases, and to create realistic and fully functional data required for use in non-production environments, while ensuring the protection of confidential and other sensitive information. The software is designed to anonymize (i.e. ‘de-identify€™) the data required for use in a variety of non-production data environments including, but not limited to, software development and implementation testing, software user training, outsourcing, data mining/research, and any other situations where users need realistic and fully functional data but do not require or are not permitted access to real production data.
The ever-increasing growth of electronic data capture, coupled with the increasing incidence of data privacy breaches, have given rise to worldwide government legislation and corporate privacy measures that not only require protection for the doors to the data, but also for the data itself. The need to augment traditional network security mechanisms such as encryption and firewalls with data privacy solutions that provide ‘need to know only€™ access to information has never been more critical. Camouflage® is specifically designed to provide this added level of data protection by replacing sensitive data with realistic and fully functional masked data.
Camouflage is highly configurable and flexible, enabling it to meet an organization€™s specific data privacy requirements. Thus, while there are pre-defined masking transformers built into the software, the number that can be created and configured through the user-friendly GUI and the robust scripting capability is only limited by the imagination of the user. The software is also designed for application and database platform independence, thus allowing widespread usability and applicability.
