Case Study: State Tollway Authority achieves enhanced driver data security and operational resilience with Fortinet Security Fabric
A Fortinet Case Study
How the Fortinet Security Fabric Keeps Toll Road Drivers’ Personal Data Secure
A U.S. state tollway authority that processes driver payments and stores sensitive personal data—including credit card, license, contact, vehicle and cross‑state transponder information—faced significant cybersecurity and continuity risks. Leadership worried about reputational damage, major revenue loss from ransomware outages, and even low‑probability safety impacts if critical lane-control systems were compromised, so they prioritized stronger defenses and visibility.
The agency deployed the Fortinet Security Fabric—FortiGate NGFWs (including a FortiGate‑VM in Azure), FortiClient endpoints, FortiAnalyzer, FortiNAC and FortiGuard services (IPS, URL filtering, antivirus), with FortiCare support—gaining centralized telemetry, immediate posture improvements when firewalls were enabled, and streamlined VPN access that supported remote work. The integrated solution simplified future SD‑WAN and ZTNA rollout, allowed the agency to close its data center, put FortiNAC in audit mode for device accountability, and delivered deeper visibility and automated threat protection compared with the legacy stack.
