Troy School District Gives High Marks to Check Point

Overview Troy School District needed a firewall that could be managed centrally for the entire network. Troy School District's local value-added reseller, Sequoia, worked with the District to develop and implement a security architecture based on the Check Point FireWall-1 security suite. The Check Point firewall allows or disallows user requests to access facilities and data inside the District's intranet and controls the resources available to users who are outside the system. Troy has developed over 20 specific firewall policies to ensure that there is only one way in and one way out of the district's IT system.
