Case Study: Berkeley County Commission achieves 100% uptime and stronger cybersecurity with Fortinet

Berkeley County Commission achieves 100% uptime with Fortinet

The Berkeley County Commission, the governing body of a West Virginian county, faced challenges managing its legacy firewalls which were difficult to operate. The IT team, responsible for critical public safety agencies, needed a more intuitive yet powerful cybersecurity solution to ensure network availability. They partnered with vendor Fortinet and implemented FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls.

Fortinet's solution included deploying multiple FortiGate NGFWs across the core network and remote locations, supplemented by FortiEDR, FortiAnalyzer, and the FortiGuard MDR Service. This integration provided the county with 100% security system uptime, increased network visibility, and a more proactive cybersecurity posture, ensuring the continuous delivery of public services.
