Problem and Resolution
The millennial generation works very differently than previous generations, particularly given the availability of technologies that enable employee mobility. Employees are no longer needed to work in the same area all of the time, thanks to technology and the bring your own device (BYOD) trend. They can now be productive from any location. Tokopedia recognized this and instituted the digital workspace concept, in which technology is utilized and integrated into their work environment in order to increase productivity, foster collaboration, and promote innovation.
However, when implementing the digital workplace concept, there are a number of factors that must be focused on, including ensuring flexibility in addressing user needs as well as the reliability and security of the current network infrastructure. To meet this need, Tokopedia partnered with Helios Informatika Nusantara and Aruba. Aruba was chosen for its reputable source of dependable and scalable enterprise system technologies. “We trust Aruba as an enterprise-level network solution at Tokopedia for its secure, intuitive, and scalable system,” said Tokopedia Engineering Manager, Chrystiadi Harris.

To grant entry access, every visitor at the entrance requires verification from the Nakama who invited them to Tokopedia. Any access granted to external users will be monitored and placed on a separate network from internal users to ensure security and optimization.
The level of security and network limits are adjustable as needed, which makes access to the Aruba network even more secure with layered protection.
