Case Study: Schenectady County achieves stronger resilience and simplified security with Fortinet

Schenectady County consolidates 5 security tools into 1 platform with Fortinet

Schenectady County needed a resilient and secure IT foundation to support critical public services across more than 25 facilities. The county's fragmented, flat network and multiple standalone security tools created operational complexity and risk for its small IT team, limiting visibility and management. To build a stronger security posture without increasing overhead, they turned to Fortinet for a consolidated solution.

By implementing the Fortinet Security Fabric, Schenectady County consolidated five separate security tools into one integrated platform. This solution provided centralized management for firewalls, switches, and access points, along with network segmentation. Fortinet helped the county achieve faster incident resolution, improve resilience for critical services, simplify operations, and deploy new sites in minutes, all while strengthening their security framework.
