Operational Impact
The implementation of the Check Point solution has brought significant operational benefits to the University of Hawaii. As a state agency, UH ITS needs to comply with many government regulations, as well as rules enforced by non-governmental agencies. The Check Point solution has enabled UH to demonstrate compliance with these regulations, particularly in relation to online class registration and payment processing. The university was able to confidently assert the soundness of its online transaction systems in a self-assessment submitted to Visa and MasterCard, leading to their certification of UH’s online transaction system. The solution has also prepared UH for future challenges, such as the potential application of Sarbanes-Oxley legislation to higher education institutions. | |
