Swiss Police Officers Association (VSPB)
Hybrid Storage Solution for Secure and Mobile Data Access
Industry: Public Sector & Government
The Swiss Police Officers Association (VSPB) is the central organization representing police officers in Switzerland.
As a key organization in the Swiss security landscape, VSPB requires a robust and compliant IT infrastructure to support its digital communication, member services, and internal operations.
Status quo
The VSPB used outdated storage systems with limited access options.
External data access was restricted, hindering mobile workflows and collaboration. Increasing data protection requirements and limited scalability posed operational challenges. To enable secure, location-independent access and automated backups, a modern hybrid solution was urgently needed.
The challenge
The objective was to implement a secure hybrid storage architecture combining local performance with cloud flexibility.
Data had to remain accessible from office and remote locations while ensuring encryption, version consistency, and backup automation. Key challenges included seamless integration into existing systems, minimal latency, and full compliance with public sector data protection regulations.
The solution
CONVOTIS implemented a hybrid storage solution linking the local NAS system to the CONVOTIS Cloud via encrypted real-time synchronization.
Files are mirrored automatically and securely, ensuring availability across local and remote environments. Daily cloud backups are fully automated, providing high availability and resilience while maintaining local speed for day-to-day operations.
The result
With the hybrid setup, VSPB staff now access their files securely from any location.
Local systems retain full performance, while encrypted synchronization and daily cloud backups ensure high data integrity and availability. The solution reduces manual administration and supports future scalability through seamless integration with cloud services.
