Keeping the Network Secure and Virus-Free by Deploying in Front of the Router Security Edge Platform

Overview Hamline University has proven to be an innovative university with high quality, rigorous academics for the past 150 years. Students could not be relied upon to regularly patch their computers or to run current versions of anti-virus software, threatening the security of the university's network and MNSCU, its access to Internet2. The solution was DeepNines Security Edge Platform. It resulted in dramatic savings in overall total cost of ownership and lower administrative time. It increased application service reliability and availability. It also slashed the risk of viruses and worms.
