Case Study: Norbert Wiener University achieves layered cyber defense and faster threat detection with Hillstone Networks

Norbert Wiener University detects a critical attack and earns ROI in under a year with Hillstone Networks

Norbert Wiener University, a private university in Peru with over 10,000 students, faced significant cybersecurity challenges from sophisticated attacks and ransomware that threatened its critical data and business continuity. Their traditional perimeter security was insufficient for the volume of attacks, prompting them to seek a solution from Hillstone Networks for greater visibility and threat detection.

Hillstone Networks implemented a layered security solution using their T-Series intelligent next-generation firewalls (iNGFW) and I-Series server breach detection system (sBDS). This integration provided advanced threat detection and internal network monitoring, which successfully prevented a major critical attack, saving the university from a severe data breach. The solution also improved network reliability with link load balancing and delivered a full return on investment in less than a year, providing the IT team with enhanced security and peace of mind.
