Protecting what matters most: how myTomorrows secures global health innovation

From sensitive patient data and strict compliance requirements to a globally distributed workforce, myTomorrows needed a security model that could scale with the organisation while keeping risk under control.
For healthcare organisations, security is about protecting trust. For Amsterdam-based health tech company myTomorrows, that trust extends to patients, physicians, pharmaceutical partners and regulators across the globe. As the organisation continued to grow internationally, its traditional VPN setup was no longer sufficient. Together with Reliance, myTomorrows moved towards a Zero Trust approach built on Zscaler. The result is a more secure, scalable and manageable environment that supports both compliance and growth.

We ended up spending less than before and now provide superior security measures for all our staff.

Customer context

myTomorrows helps patients with unmet medical needs discover and access clinical trials and expanded access programmes. The organisation operates internationally and works with highly sensitive patient and pharmaceutical data. That responsibility comes with strict security and compliance requirements.At the same time, employees work across Europe, India, North America and South America, creating a highly distributed IT environment. For Filippo Mandrini, Information Security Officer at myTomorrows, the challenge was clear: create a security architecture that protects every employee and every connection, regardless of location.

The existing VPN environment was originally designed for engineers who needed access to development and production systems. While functional, it no longer matched the needs of a growing global organisation. Performance issues, limited scalability and increasing security demands made it clear that a different approach was needed.The goal was not simply to replace the VPN. The goal was to establish a modern security framework that would support future growth while improving visibility, control and user experience.

Reason for
change

Challenge

For myTomorrows, security cannot come at the expense of productivity. The organisation needed a solution that could secure all users, not just technical teams, while remaining easy to manage across multiple regions and devices.At the same time, compliance requirements continued to grow. GDPR, ISO 27001, HIPAA and SOC 2 all require a high level of control, visibility and accountability. The challenge was finding a solution that could strengthen security without adding unnecessary complexity.

After evaluating multiple vendors, myTomorrows selected Zscaler as the foundation for its Zero Trust strategy. Together with Reliance, the organisation implemented Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) to replace the existing AWS VPN environment, Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) to secure internet traffic for all employees, and continuous monitoring and optimisation of the environment alongside ongoing security reviews and support.According to Filippo, Reliance played an important role throughout the process. "What really stood out was how involved the team was. They challenged our assumptions, guided us through best practices and helped optimise the setup." The collaboration continued well beyond implementation, with regular reviews, proactive monitoring and ongoing support.

Approach

Collaboration

What makes the partnership valuable is Reliance's continued involvement. Potential incidents are proactively flagged. Security improvements are discussed regularly. Licensing, optimisation and future developments are reviewed together. "Whether it's licensing discussions or security tuning, nothing is left hanging."That approach gives myTomorrows access to specialist knowledge without needing to build a large internal security team.

Results and future development

The impact reaches far beyond replacing a VPN. myTomorrows now has significantly greater visibility into devices, user behaviour and security risks across the organisation. The platform helps monitor encryption settings, firewall configurations, password policies, user integrity and internet activity.At the same time, the organisation achieved broader protection while reducing costs compared to its previous setup. Perhaps most importantly, the new environment provides a foundation for future growth. As myTomorrows continues to expand globally, security remains closely aligned with its mission to help patients gain faster access to treatments and clinical programmes.For myTomorrows, Zero Trust is not simply a technology decision. It is a business decision that supports trust, compliance and growth. That is exactly where Reliance adds value: creating secure, scalable IT environments that keep organisations moving. Today, tomorrow and for the long term.
