Case Study: Liverpool John Moores University achieves secure BYOD and complete device visibility with Bradford Networks’ Network Sentry

Bradford Networks’ Network Sentry Enables Secure BYOD at Liverpool John Moores University

Liverpool John Moores University was struggling to secure a growing mix of student- and university-owned devices on its campus network. Manual MAC-address registration for wired access was time-consuming, unscalable and provided limited tracking, leaving the IT team without full visibility or an efficient way to enforce security policies across thousands of wired and wireless users.

The university deployed Bradford Networks’ Network Sentry NAC, a vendor‑independent solution that identifies, profiles and authenticates every device, enforces compliance checks, quarantines at‑risk devices and lets users self‑remediate. The result: complete visibility across the network, automated access control and protection against rogue clients and malware, major time savings for IT, and improved security and productivity for staff and students.
