Douglas County School System | Education | 4000 | $670M | United States | iboss | iboss Secure Cloud Gateway | Secure Web Gateways (SWG) | 2016 | n/a | In 2016, Douglas County School System implemented iboss Secure Cloud Gateway to provide district-wide web access control and security. The deployment of iboss Secure Cloud Gateway is recorded against the Secure Web Gateways (SWG) category and was managed within the district IT operations by the appointed Systems Administrator. The iboss Secure Cloud Gateway implementation centered on cloud gateway routing and policy enforcement, using standard Secure Web Gateways (SWG) capabilities such as URL and content filtering, policy-based internet access controls, secure web proxying, and reporting and logging for audit and compliance. Configuration work focused on defining role-based access profiles for student and staff cohorts and tuning content categories and block lists to align with K12 policy requirements. The solution was deployed to operate alongside the district�s existing Google Apps for Education and Microsoft 365 environments and the wider Cisco infrastructure that the Systems Administrator supported. Integration points emphasized co-management with user directories and the district help desk workflows managed through existing administration tools, enabling centralized policy administration across the district's cloud and on-premises services. Ongoing governance and operational ownership remained with the Systems Administrator, who maintained policy templates, incident logging, and day-to-day administration tied into the district help desk and server management routines. The narrative reflects a security-first SWG implementation by Douglas County School System using iboss Secure Cloud Gateway within the Secure Web Gateways (SWG) category, aligned to district IT and student safety functions. | |

Alaska Communications | Communications | 569 | $231M | United States | Juniper Networks | Juniper Networks SRX Series | Next Generation Firewall | 2018 | n/a | In 2018, Alaska Communications deployed Juniper Networks SRX Series as its Next Generation Firewall. The deployment ran alongside Juniper MX80 and MX5 Universal Routing Platforms and SRX Series Services Gateways, forming the core of the service provider edge security architecture. The Juniper Networks SRX Series implementation delivered standard Next Generation Firewall capabilities including stateful firewalling, intrusion prevention, application visibility and control, and IPsec VPN termination. Configuration focused on consolidated security policy enforcement at the network edge, leveraging SRX Series Services Gateways for unified threat management and session handling. Integration points included routing and network aggregation on MX80 and MX5 Universal Routing Platforms, enabling SRX Series policy enforcement to be applied to traffic flows at peering and customer demarcation points. Operational responsibility was aligned to network operations and security operations teams, with firewall policy push and change control incorporated into existing network orchestration and monitoring processes. Juniper Networks SRX Series was restated as the primary perimeter security control within Alaska Communications infrastructure, providing a platform for edge security, VPN termination, and inspection services across the provider network. The architecture emphasized centralized policy management and high availability options typical for a communications service provider environment. | |
