The Tehama Carrier for Work™ for Financial Services
An innovative and disruptive solution that removes the risk associated with hybrid work
Financial institutions face incredible barriers when enabling a hybrid workforce.
The challenge of securing sensitive data and complying with increasingly demanding regulations, while sustaining a productive and connected workforce, is a herculean task. Add on complex IT infrastructure and daily cyber threats, and it’s no wonder that financial institutions have been slower to adopt hybrid work.
In the case of third-party vendors and contractors, the only way to enforce security and compliance is via written contracts and lengthy IT processes for provisioning corporate-owned laptops, which can be compromised once in the hands of the vendor.
The Tehama Carrier for Work™ provides a secure way for banks, credit unions, and fintechs, for example, to work safely with an “anywhere” workforce that includes employees, contractors and third-party service providers.
Business Outcomes
Tehama’s Carrier for Work™ enables secure and compliant hybrid work for financial services organizations.
1
Faster time to value
Tehama enables you to deploy hybrid work environments anywhere in the world, with on-demand desktop configuration and automated IT resource allocation for greater business scalability.

Improved productivity and user experience
Because workspaces can be configured and provisioned in minutes, disruption and downtime are kept to a minimum. Employees simply log into Tehama and can immediately begin work with all the tools and applications they need.
3
Meet regulatory and compliance standards
Tehama has more than 80 built-in SOC 2 Type II controls, making it easy to meet regulatory requirements such as FINRA, PIPEDA, OSFI, NYDFS 23, and NYCRR 500. Every Tehama session is logged and recorded, so auditors and risk managers can ensure all compliance requirements are met.
4
Achieve cost efficiencies and savings
Tehama helps reduce costs for cloud transfer, compute, GPU, and storage, as well as endpoint management and support costs— for a lower total cost of ownership compared to legacy VDI solutions.
Keep Your Data Safe With Tehama
Forensic Auditing
Every Tehama session from every worker is witnessed in real-time and recorded for playback and auditing. Everything done in the Tehama Carrier for Work™ is logged to protect the financial institution and in the case of contractors, the third-party organization.
Eliminate VPN Risk
Tehama isolates endpoint devices and eliminates VPN risks by providing a virtual extension of the enterprise. With the Tehama Carrier for Work™, workers can securely collaborate and deliver services to only the enterprise applications on-premises or to the cloud they are authorized to access.
Strong Identity Control and Policy Enforcement
Workers must complete an approval process that enforces policies such as nationality, OSFI, legal clearances, 23NYCRR500, GDPR or any other policies the financial institution wishes to enforce. Once workers are approved, they must use MFA (multi-factor authentication) to enter the Workroom. There, they start work on a Windows or Linux desktop image that is already loaded with all the software products authorized by the Workroom Manager.
Encrypt All Communication
Everything that happens in the Tehama Workroom is encrypted, as is all the communication between the Tehama platform and the financial services infrastructure. This completely eliminates the need for untrustworthy and expensive VPN connections and hardware.
