Internet is a tool which if not well controlled could easily be misused. University Clinic for Obstetrics and Gynecology – Skopje wanted to control the non-productive  surfing and downloads of the employees, and stressed the need to increase the level of security with a perimeter solution which can control the access of the network resources of the institution, and provide Gateway anti-virus and anti-spam capabilities needed to block Internet originating threats. With lot of users working from home or remote, The University Clinic for Obstetrics and Gynecology- Skopje was also planning to safely connect all these users to the Head Office via reliable VPN service in order to bridge the geographical gap and to achieve high business connectivity.
And with lots of critical data, systems and devices functioning within the network, a high quality Endpoint protection solution was required to protect them from common and advanced threats.
Moreover, with limited number of IT administrators and resources, the solution needed to be easy to deploy, configure and maintain while at the same time giving insight and improving the security posture of the institution.

A NGFW solution from Sophos was deployed in order to secure the perimeter and provide controlled access to network resources. Versatile and feature-rich, it provides:
•  Web and Application Control
•  Gateway Anti-Malware
•  Integrated IPS and DDoS protection
•  Advanced Threat Protection
•  Integrated Web Application Firewall
•  VPN Connectivity at no additional cost
•  Built-in Reporting, and more…

To secure the endpoint layer of the network, an Endpoint Protection and Control solution by Kaspersky was installed, protecting the end-devices from common threats and ransomware on all levels, providing controls for application, web and device usage, and centralized management through a robust management software called Kaspersky Security Center.
