Case Study: Cox Media Group achieves uninterrupted broadcasting with Fortinet Security Fabric

Cox Media Group patches a TV station in under 4 hours with Fortinet

Cox Media Group, a major US media company operating numerous television and radio stations, faced the challenge of securing its network against constant cyber threats without risking disruption to its 24/7 broadcast operations. Their legacy infrastructure made routine maintenance like patching systems incredibly difficult, leaving them exposed to significant security and operational risks. They turned to Fortinet for a solution.

By implementing a suite of Fortinet products including FortiGate next-generation firewalls, FortiSwitch, FortiAP, and centralized management with FortiManager, Fortinet provided a resilient and scalable security foundation. This solution enabled Cox Media Group to perform full system patching in under four hours with no broadcast interruption, maintain uninterrupted operations, and improve overall efficiency with centralized control.
