Case Study: Desert Research Institute achieves real-time government compliance and streamlined audits with Check Point Software Compliance Blade

Desert Research Institute - Customer Case Study

Desert Research Institute (DRI) is a Nevada-based environmental research organization with more than 500 employees that conducts applied research for federal clients including the U.S. Department of Defense and Department of Energy. Faced with constantly changing government requirements, DRI needed to ensure and document regulatory compliance, eliminate time-consuming manual audit processes, and extend IT visibility across two campuses and multiple satellite labs.

DRI deployed the Check Point Compliance Software Blade to provide a single, integrated platform for real-time compliance monitoring, automated assessment reports, and a library of 250+ security best practices. The solution streamlined and sped up audits, improved security visibility and confidence with auditors, enabled proactive VPN and gateway monitoring, and is being scaled to endpoints for broader, timely insight.
