SonicWALL Internet security , a leader in providing network security to infrastructure company, has been awarded the contract to install SonicWall Clean VPN to Northwoods Commnity Church, a member of the Fellowship of Evangelical Churches. The system will be combined to SonicWall SSL-VPN 2000 secure remote access appliance with a SonicWall E-Class NSA E5500 network security appliance.

“We have users traveling and working remotely needing access to our servers and data,” said Jason Lee, Northwoods’ IT Director. “Even though they are trusted connections, we want to be sure we still have a line of protection at our perimeter. Giving our clients a secure remote access to our networks provides us with great value.”

Northwoods’ E5500 firewall scans both inbound and outbound SSL VPN traffic using Gateway Antivirus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion Prevention services.

As a nonprofit organization, Northwoods is especially sensitive to value.

“We have limited resources, but our expectations are no different than a Fortune 500 company, and that’s to utilize the best technology we can afford to help our team succeed,” said Lee. “SonicWall Internet security has given use sound protection against any forms of attacks. The same technology that would be very costly if we hire Cisco or Juniper.”

By selecting SonicWALL Internet security’s E-Class, Lee freed up budget for other initiatives. And using Unified Threat Management instead of separate services and servers from different vendors has lowered his costs, and eased budgeting and planning.

Lee said the Church is also planning to expand SonicWall’s Clean Wireless implementation.

“We currently have 13 SonicPoints deployed to cover high-traffic areas of our campus,” said Lee. “We apply Gateway Antivirus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion Prevention services, as well as Content Filtering, to all inbound and outbound traffic on our wireless network.”
