Integrated Edge Security Improves Media Company's Network Security and Performance | 2007-09-05 | Microsoft |
| Arvato Systems provides communication services for parent company Bertelsmann, a worldwide media corporation. The company needed to give remote employees more secure access to Web-based applications, but its firewall solution could not deliver application-level protection. The company also could not ensure consistent remote access to messaging because the high volume of connection requests overwhelmed the network. For network protection and stability, Arvato Systems implemented a solution based on Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2006, part of the Microsoft Forefront line of business security products. Now employees have better remote access to applications and data, and the company has a more protected IT environment with application-level security. The security solution is also easy to maintain, resulting in better network stability and enhanced productivity.
