Case Study: the Department of Mineral Resources achieves stronger network security and reporting with Sangfor NGFW

The Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) - Customer Case Study

The Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) was using a legacy firewall that was unable to keep pace with evolving cyber threats and its own growing requirements. Their previous solution lacked critical features like IPv6 support, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) for protecting key internal systems, and adequate protection against DoS attacks. Furthermore, the reporting tools were complex and difficult to use, creating a significant security visibility challenge for the government agency.

Sangfor Technologies addressed these issues by replacing the outdated system with its Sangfor Next Generation Firewall (NGFW). This solution provided the DMR with the required IPv6 support, WAF functionality, and robust DoS attack protection. The implementation included simple and intuitive reporting tools that clearly identify issues and provide solutions, as well as an integrated vulnerability assessment tool. With Sangfor's NGFW, the DMR is now effectively protected against emerging and future threats.
