Case #1
Retail Company with Internet/Intranet Traffic


The Challenge

As one of the fastest growing companies in the world, a Fortune 100 retail and services company has the ongoing challenge of managing tremendous growth while still maintaining a secure environment. Finding a solution that could handle the tremendous volume of traffic from the Internet, as well as intranet traffic, was one of the major challenges that this corporation faced when developing a corporate-wide security strategy. Additionally, the solution had to be easy to manage on a global scale.

The Solution

By combining the high performance, scalability of Check Point FireWall-1 with the performance and high-availability of the Nokia platform, this company was able to safely and securely roll out a corporate-wide Internet/intranet security initiative. In addition, they have integrated eSafe and WebSENSE, as well as the ISS RealSecure Intrusion Detection into a comprehensive security offering. The integrity of this site is checked and monitored regularly with the ISS Internet Scanner.

Key Benefits
  • Enterprise-wide, comprehensive, integrated security solution
  • High-availability
  • High performance
  • Protection from viruses, vandals, data exposure, inappropriate content, resource misuse
  • URL filtering


Case #2
Training Facility with VPN Challenge


The Challenge

As one of Microsoft's largest training facilities in the world, this company's reach extends beyond the ivory towers of corporate America. The training facilities range from what some would consider "mom and pop" facilities, all the way up to corporate enterprise locations. They provide quality technical training to small, underserved areas and locations with thousands of persons per month. This corporation must be strategic to get the required corporate data communications to everyone, while at the same time not wasting money on unnecessary data circuits.

The Solution

Check Point's Firewall-1 was able to deliver from the very lowest end of their requirements, all the way up to full scale network-to-network requirements. By leveraging the Internet along with Check Point's VPN-1 capabilities, this company was able to provide data resources to areas that would not typically be serviced.

Key Benefits
  • Enables International connectivity without border tariffs typically incurred with leased lines
  • Connectivity to the corporation network can be securely distributed worldwide
  • Truly secure access across the Internet to Windows NT networks


Case #3
Retail Website with Massive eCommerce Traffic


The Challenge

As a well known, fast growing "brick and mortar" retail company, creating an eCommerce site on the Internet two years ago was a tremendous challenge with many unknowns. However, this gamble paid off providing the company with significant revenue, faster than anyone could have projected. The challenge was to build an e-commerce site that could handle massive traffic volumes using Windows NT.

The Solution

FireWall-1 was able to effectively and reliably meet this challenge. This Web site takes approximately 3 million hits per day, and has sustained this volume without any major complications or outages.

Key Benefits
  • Reliable, scalable, and easy to use FW-1 implementation
