Beijing-Shanghai Express Railway improves its network security with Clavister Security Gateways
“Clavister safeguards our network security and contributes to the development of our information systems. Clavister’s innovative solutions further guarantee stable and secure operations of our station management system” declares Chen Yong, Engineer, Station Operation System, Beijing-Shanghai Express Railway.
Beijing-Shanghai Express Railway needed a solution to reinforce their network security with solid protection against Internet attacks such as viruses, worms, Trojans, and phishing. They also needed to collect sales and other operational data on a daily basis from the train stations along the 1,318-kilometre (819 mi) long railway. Clavister security gateways with centralized management tools were chosen for the task. The high-performance gateways feature redundant multi-link technology for future expansion.
What Clavister did
Clavister products involved
Twenty-three Clavister security gateways were purchased initially. After two months of operation there were no signs of transmission delays or lost packages. The gateways were also found to be particularly easy to deploy. The Beijing-Shanghai Express Railway is now planning to purchase more Clavister equipment for upcoming projects.
