Enterprise-Class Network Security

Fortinet appliances and virtual appliances enable you to secure your educational institution’s enterprise-class network without sacrificing the ease of access that students require for effective learning. Real-time scanning of email, IM, web and file transfer content blocks viruses, worms, web-based malware sites, phishing attacks, and access to inappropriate content. Fortinet web-filtering, which receives regular updates from the FortiGuard® CIPA-certified web-ratings database, helps schools and libraries maintain compliance with government regulations such as H.R.4577.

We handle a lot of very confidential and time sensitive data for which security is absolutely essential. So, when we decided to move our existing services and systems online for more efficiency, we had to ensure that not only our data would be protected but also that our network would maintain its high performance, delivery throughput and high availability. Fortinet's FortiGate-800 systems provided the performance, flexibility and security we were looking for. Combined with other networked solutions deployed by DPS, we felt that it was the most effective solution for us.
