Case Study: Advent One achieves a secure, high‑performance Tier III data centre and new managed‑services revenue with Fortinet

Fortinet secures Advent One’s Tier III data centre

Advent One, an Australian IT infrastructure specialist expanding into managed “as-a-service” offerings, needed industrial-strength, low-latency security for its Tier III data centre to create new revenue streams and meet enterprise customer demands. The company sought a vendor with broad product capability and technical support to deliver highly available, manageable secure gateways without performance bottlenecks.

Fortinet supplied three FortiGate 1000C Next Generation Firewalls (two for managed services and one for disaster recovery), FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection and professional services to deploy and tune the solution. The deployment delivered high-throughput secure access (headline 8 Gbps IPSec VPN), support for thousands of concurrent sessions and multi-tenant virtual domains, reduced operational overheads, and a scalable, cost-effective platform that enabled new services and improved customer retention.
