Case Studies
BACKGROUND:
Australian Maritime Thechnologies (AMT) is a member of the Defence Industry Security Program (DISP). When the Department of Defence issued new cyber security requirments, AMT audited its network security to determine whether it could meet the new standards.
CHALLENGE:
AMT spans across various geographical locations and therefore required a solution that would allow staff to access the data they required and only that data.
SOLUTION:
CDM developed a security solution world class leading cybersecurity technology from Fortinet.
This solution involved a comprehensive security fabric solution utilising FortiGate Next Generation Firewalls with Unified Threat Management (UTM). It was combined with email security (FortiEmail & FortiGuard) and a network security, analysis, logging, and information solution (FortiAnalyser & FortiSIEM).
CDM designed a remote access system that included multi-factor authentication using FortiAuthenticator and FortiToken, physical access tokens that provide one-time passwords, and security and malware protection for personal devices using FortiClient.
AMT’s IT department is small, meaning a single staff member needed to be familiar with multiple systems. The single dashboard setup streamlined workflows for AMT and minimised training requirements for staff.
“One thing we really liked about the Fortinet solution was the ‘single pane of glass’. Being able to log in and see everything on one screen makes it a lot easier for our IT people. Everything works the same way,” said Rick Hunt, Cyber Security Manager at AMT.
