Guarding and Protecting Dubai Municipality's Network and Ensuring the Integrity of the Information That Drives the City

Overview

Few cities in the world are thriving to the extent Dubai is today. Diversification in the last few years into a service and tourism-oriented economy has placed significant pressure on the city's municipal services delivered by the Dubai Municipality. To combat threats to its desktop estate from viruses, worms and other attacks, Dubai Municipality has deployed a next-generation Symantec security solution. As a result, Dubai is benefiting from uninterrupted public services delivery, the Municipality itself has not had a single virus attack for two years, and the time taken to update 3,000 desktops across the estate with security measures has been reduced from one month to 15 minutes.
