LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Linklaters LLP, one of the world’s leading global law firms, has selected Telstra International as a provider of one of its fully managed end-to-end Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks, ensuring reliable and robust communications between its 26 offices across 19 countries around the world.
A resilient, secure ICT infrastructure is critical for international law firms. By upgrading its international network, Linklaters has the flexibility to adapt its infrastructure to meet new demands and evolve with changing global markets.
Sue Hall, Chief Information Officer for Linklaters said, “In order to allow our fee earners to share information and collaborate globally, Linklaters provides a standardised, consistent set of IT services to all our users across the world. These services are provided from centralised data centres, and this means that the wide area network connecting these data centres to the offices is critical to the operation of all activities within the firm.”
“We selected Telstra International to provide one half of this fully-redundant, dual-carrier MPLS network because they demonstrated responsiveness and flexibility during the tender process, and were able to adapt to meet our requirements, and provide us with a high performing, reliable network at a competitive price.”
The MPLS network is fully managed by Telstra International’s EMEA team and enables seamless, secure communications between more than 2,100 qualified lawyers employed by Linklaters across the globe.
Tom Homer, Chief Executive Officer for Telstra International EMEA, commented, “In today’s global economy, premium multi-national companies need to be able to rely on a robust, resilient network between their international locations to ensure operational efficiencies are maximised.
