The challenge
The Vegemite brand and associated marketing (website etc.) was being acquired by Bega Cheese Limited. Discussions for transitioning brand materials began in April 2017. It was critical that a solution be delivered by June of 2017.
Our approach
We began the initial design work to transition a non-Wordpress site into a functional WordPress platform while allowing additional content to be added easily. We kept the system within existing brand guidelines.
Our AWS team developed a hardened infrastructure so that WordPress could function well in a scalable AWS environment. Two weeks prior to delivery, penetration testing commenced and we worked closely with security teams to close vulnerabilities and establish protocols for future Bega sites.
The site was successfully launched in June of 2017 much to the happiness of Bega Cheese Limited, their legal team and all of Australia.
