The Hanover Selects Cognizant for Remote Infrastructure Management

As the company becomes more of a 24/7 business, it has become more important to monitor its systems around the clock.

P&C insurer The Hanover (Worcester, Mass.) has selected remote infrastructure management from Teaneck, N.J. based Cognizant.

As the company gains more territory, the capabilities are strategically important to enable speed to market for new and enhanced insurance products, as well as ease of use and expanded system availability for The Hanover's insurance agents, the company says in a release.

"Cognizant has the competencies and capabilities The Hanover needed to provide centralized infrastructure management from a global perspective across The Hanover's many locations and time zones," Mike Clifton, CIO, The Hanover, explains in a statement. "Our long relationship with Cognizant, which started in 2005, has expanded into infrastructure management based on our positive experience with Cognizant's consulting-led approach, application development capabilities, as well as its industry expertise in developing critical business applications for global insurers."
