Case Study: Andrea Bocelli Foundation achieves secure, scalable digital learning and a cyber-aware campus with Fortinet

Fortinet Supports the Andrea Bocelli Foundation’s Mission to Empower Future Generations through Secure Digital Learning

The Andrea Bocelli Foundation (ABF) is an Italian non-profit that builds schools and educational programs to empower disadvantaged young people. After rebuilding facilities following the 2016 earthquake and converting historic spaces into the ABF GlobaLAB, the foundation needed a trusted technology partner to deliver secure, high-performance, scalable and unobtrusive network infrastructure and to foster digital-safety awareness among students and staff.

Fortinet provided a unified solution—FortiGate firewalls, FortiSwitch, FortiAP, FortiPhish and its Security Awareness and Training Service (including NSE Fundamentals)—to secure campus LANs, enable simplified remote management, and deliver phishing and cyber-safety training. The deployment created flexible, high-performance learning environments, reduced risk by building a cyber-aware culture, and helped ABF safely expand its digital learning programs.
