Case Study: Minooka Community High School District #111 modernizes network security with Fortinet

Minooka Community High School District #111 cuts access point deployment time from 30 minutes to near zero with Fortinet

Minooka Community High School District #111, a multi-campus school district in Illinois, needed to modernize its network security to manage secure connectivity for its one-to-one device program. The district sought to replace its fragmented security environment, which required administrators to work across multiple platforms, and to support future growth without increasing management complexity. They turned to Fortinet for a solution involving their network firewall and secure LAN products.

Fortinet implemented its integrated Security Fabric platform, using FortiGate as the foundation for centralized policy enforcement and visibility across all campuses. The solution leveraged FortiLink automation to accelerate the deployment of switches and wireless access points. As a result, Fortinet helped reduce access point deployment time from 30 minutes to near zero, provided improved network visibility for faster troubleshooting, and built a scalable foundation to support the district's future growth.
