DU-COMM makes the move to Resilience and Websense 7.0
Cambridge, MA July 1, 2009
Scott Klein from DU-COMM, a consolidated
911 dispatch center located in DuPage County, IL, has been looking for a “set
it and forget it” appliance.
Before Mr. Klein contacted Resilience he was operating Websense version
6.3 on an outdated Dell PowerEdge server that was slow and had reached its
end-of-life.
"Servers aren’t cheap" so Mr. Klein was
hesitant to make a decision that was going to be more work and less
reward. Mr. Klein was adamant to
find a “plug and play” appliance that was going to solve all his needs without
breaking the bank.
Mr. Klein compared Resilience to a new Windows
server and aWebsense appliance from another vendor.“The Windows server required additional support from a
patch standpoint, and the other appliance required proxy settings on every box,”
reports Mr. Klein. “In addition,
we had real concerns over down time resulting from the Windows Updates.” Both options required constant
management and were the exact opposite of what Mr. Klein was looking for.
After doing a final analysis, DU-COMM
selected the Resilience security appliance for Websense and moved to the latest
Websense release version 7.
“Resilience was compelling for its ease of use and plug and play
operations. DU-COMM is now
managing all policies in one place,” reported Mr. Klein. “No more worries over policy access
from remote servers, no proxies to set, and no more ‘Patch Tuesdays!’ Best of all I haven’t touched the
Resilience appliance since the installation.”
“Overall, I have been very pleased with
Resilience. They offer a real
appliance.”
