Case Study: IIITDM Kurnool achieves zero-security incidents and uninterrupted online classes with SonicWall NSa 6650 and Capture ATP

Premier Technical Education Provider Adopts Cybersecurity Protection and Enhances Online Class Infrastructure with SonicWall

The Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design and Manufacturing – Kurnool (IIITDM) faced a new permanent campus with gigabit internet but no security infrastructure, leaving internally hosted applications and students exposed and disrupting online classes. IIITDM sought a next-generation firewall to protect apps, control student internet activity and ensure high uptime at a low total cost of ownership, and evaluated SonicWall solutions including Capture Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) and NSa appliances.

After a successful POC, IIITDM deployed SonicWall NSa 6650 in high-availability with On-Prem Analytics and Capture ATP to block advanced threats and provide deep visibility and control. SonicWall’s solution delivered a zero-security-incident environment, eliminated frequent disconnections, improved online-class continuity and quality, helped regulate campus internet use, optimized network resources and reduced TCO.
