Quang Trung Software City (QTSC), a government-run software development park in Vietnam, was facing a significant challenge in provisioning security services for its rapidly growing population. The park, which is the largest IT park in Vietnam with over 3,000 occupants, was struggling to manage the ever-increasing security threats with a small IT staff. The existing security solution was not scalable enough to deliver services to the many companies comprising the software technology park. QTSC needed to ensure that their users have secure access to corporate resources. The challenge was to upgrade to a scalable, sophisticated security solution that could handle the increasing security threats without adding administrative burden.

QTSC chose Check Point's virtualized security architecture to address their security challenges. The solution included VPN-1 VSX, VPN-1 UTM, IAS Integrated Appliance, and Provider-1. The virtualized solution was adaptable for future growth and was deployed on Check Point's IAS Integrated Appliances. Check Point's solution provided key firewall and security management infrastructure for the entire software park. It included internal firewalls, firewalls for several large clients, and VPN-1 UTM to protect their lab environment. With Provider-1, QTSC could optimize its security management on one console for multiple domains. The solution was implemented over the course of four weeks, providing protection for more than 3,000 users within QTSC.

The implementation of Check Point's virtualized security solution resulted in several operational benefits for QTSC. The IT team was able to support a large number of firewalls without needing a large staff, reducing administrative time. The solution's single-server architecture simplified the management of multiple firewalls. The advanced management tools in a single console made it easier for the team to manage the security infrastructure. The virtualized infrastructure also reduced costs by eliminating the need to purchase multiple servers. The flexible licensing provided additional cost savings. The solution's scalability allowed it to cater to QTSC’s growing pool of customers, and it could provision firewall services in under 30 minutes.
