University of Birmingham
To keep pace with its 35,000 network users and increasingly bandwidth-heavy applications, the University of Birmingham needed to improve its network security, performance, and manageability. By replacing a hodgepodge of legacy products with FortiGate next-generation firewalls (NGFWs), the University achieved more effective security without hampering performance. Meanwhile, the Fortinet Fabric Management Center made it easier for the IT team to deploy, monitor, and report on security controls across the multi-campus network.
