Case Study: Gulliver Preparatory School strengthens campus security and simplifies IT operations with Fortinet Security Fabric

Gulliver Preparatory School cuts network complexity with Fortinet and keeps 0 breaches in seven years

Gulliver Preparatory School, an elite educational institution serving over 2,200 students in South Florida, faced the challenge of managing a fragmented and complex multi-vendor network. This infrastructure was difficult to maintain, created a high dependency on external managed service providers, and resulted in slow configuration changes that hindered instructional needs. To modernize its operations, the school turned to Fortinet for a solution involving next-generation firewalls and other security products.

By standardizing on the Fortinet Security Fabric, which included FortiGate NGFWs, FortiSwitch, FortiAP, and FortiEDR, the school implemented a unified security and networking solution. This deployment from Fortinet streamlined operations, enabling rapid updates and reducing overhead. The results included improved student safety, secure classroom connectivity, and enterprise-grade visibility and control across more than 2,800 devices, with the school experiencing zero breaches in seven years while handling 80% of network operations in-house.
