Case Study: Kelley Kronenberg achieves in-house network and security management and 30% EDR cost savings with Fortinet Security Fabric

Florida Law Firm Brings Network and Security Management In-House Thanks to the Fortinet Security Fabric

Kelley Kronenberg is a mid‑sized law firm founded in 1980 with 12 offices across Florida plus locations in New Orleans and Chicago. After relying on an MSP, the firm decided to bring networking and security in‑house but faced a lean IT team without deep security expertise and needed an integrated, cost‑effective solution that would work out of the box.

The firm chose the Fortinet Security Fabric—deploying FortiGate NGFWs, FortiSwitch, FortiAP, Secure SD‑WAN, FortiEDR, FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer—to unify networking and security across its 12 offices and two data centers. The move consolidated management, improved visibility and automation (including SD‑WAN failover), reduced reliance on expensive MPLS, cut EDR costs by about 30%, sped up operations, and enabled rapid upskilling (five staff certified via Fortinet’s NSE program) while protecting roughly 700 endpoints.
