AT&T to Establish VPN for ProAssurance

AT&T, a communications services provider, has announced a two-year contract worth $1 million with ProAssurance Group to establish virtual private network services.

AT&T will install required hardware for the new virtual private network (VPN) at ProAssurance’s headquarters in Birmingham, which will enhance communications between 14 company sites across the country.

ProAssurance is also leveraging AT&T’s integration solutions services to help manage and develop its network capabilities over the new VPN. Improved visibility and enhanced reporting systems will enable ProAssurance to streamline its operations and remain focused on protecting customers from medical liability damages.

Willie Clemons, vice president of information systems at ProAssurance, said: “AT&T gives ProAssurance the network services to enhance the way that our professionals are able to communicate across the country and further streamline and improve how we report on the progress of our business.

“AT&T’s presence every step along the way, from installation to network integration to maintenance and management, is something we’ve come to depend on.”
