Deloitte and Dell Technologies alliance

Responding to adverse scenarios, protecting against risks, and minimizing the business impact of cyberattacks is critical to long-term success in today's dynamic tech landscape.

To help organizations combat these potential risks and proactively build cyber resilience, Deloitte and Dell developed a combination of solutions and services designed to help prepare for, respond to, and recover from cyber incidents, including:

• Foundational Cyber Vault: Deloitte and Dell have developed the ability to protect critical business services and technology assets from destruction or unauthorized encryption by implementing a cyber vault with a predefined set of critical organizational data that can be quickly and easily restored from a backup in the event of a destructive cyberattack.
• Cyber Recovery Services (CRS) for Cloud: This joint solution between Deloitte and Dell helps organizations identify and protect critical cloud workloads from destructive cyberattacks.
• Cyber Incident Response: Deloitte and Dell provide joint cyber incident response services that can help organizations respond strategically to active cyber incidents and mitigate the risks of the business, operational, and technical challenges they can pose.

These services and solutions are ideal for regulated and non-regulated organizations across various industries:

• Financial services
• Health care
• Manufacturing
• Industrials
• Energy
• Life sciences
• Technology

As more IT infrastructure moves beyond data centers to remote, edge environments, it's increasingly important for organizations to safeguard and optimize these investments.

Solutions such as Experience Ready Infrastructure (ERIn) 2.0 can empower teams to unlock real-time insights, optimize business models, generate new revenue streams, and reduce costs, while our solution-as-a-service operating model focuses on edge solutions with infrastructure, computer vision, and cloud providers under our ConnectedEdge.AI solution framework.

What is the "connected edge"?
We see the connected edge as the convergence of an organization's:

• End points and edge devices (think inventory trackers, smart shelves, or point-of-sale systems for example)
• Infrastructure for connectivity (think low latency, high-speed data processing at scale)
• Connected apps (think services positioned near consumption points)
• Cloud and data center infrastructures

Combined, these connected edge elements can work together as one to help teams optimize processes and maximize efficiencies.

Edge solutions such as ERIn 2.0 and ConnectedEdge.AI are ideal for organizations in:

• Retail
• Power and utilities
• Consumer products
• Industrials

As more organizations adopt hybrid and multi-cloud platforms—which also provide a scalable foundation for deploying artificial intelligence (AI)—they should take steps to help maximize enterprise performance and economic outcomes. To achieve these outcomes, organizations need to be intentional in design in order to minimize system complexity, unlock improved return on investment and help ensure scalability and flexibility in their hybrid and/or multi-cloud environment.

Dell's multi-cloud experience and Deloitte's track record for leading hybrid cloud transformations illustrates there is no one-size-fits-all approach. We help teams boost performance and improve revenue streams by empowering them to strategically optimize workload locations—moving workloads on-premises or to cloud and edge environments based on individual business needs.

We also help clients address technology challenges tied to infrastructure operations, platform optimization, compute right-sizing, and storage consolidation, while preparing them to consume and deliver AI infrastructure at scale.

With joint tools, technologies, and offerings, we can empower organizations to solve complex business problems with hybrid and multi-cloud solutions that help deliver greater business value.

These hybrid and multi-cloud solutions are ideal for organizations across multiple industries and sectors, including:

• Banking capital markets
• Insurance
• Power and utilities
• Oil and gas
• Semiconductors
• Media and entertainment

The proliferation of AI and Generative AI (GenAI) in today's technology landscape requires organizations to keep pace and learn to harness the power of AI across devices, edge, and hybrid cloud environments to drive modernization and efficiency. But they also need a strategic plan, before developing and testing AI use cases on the latest platforms, to take full advantage of AI's growth potential.

The experience Deloitte and Dell each possess with AI means we have the capabilities to help organizations prove AI use cases before they make a commitment to buy infrastructure or services, giving organizations more peace of mind and readiness for the wave of innovation to come. Deloitte's AI Center of Excellence Lab Experience is one such solution that can be leveraged for organizations in:

• Health care
• Federal government
• Telecommunications
• Financial insurance and more
