Juniper Networks beat out 14 other vendors to win a network-security contract with the California State University (CSU) system. AT&T will install, maintain and train on the solution that will protect CSU's 23 campuses and seven off-campus centers.
The Juniper solution will include the Secure Services Gateway (SSG) family, the Integrated Security Gateway (ISG) 2000 with Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP), and NetScreen-500 and NetScreen-5200 Firewall/IPSec VPNs.
Unlike the typical bid process predominantly handled by procurement and CIOs, CSU involved campus-level networking directors, technicians, CIOs, and financial and security officers in the selection process.
Deployment of the system is expected to be completed by January 2008.
