Attleboro Public Schools Chooses Cymphonix™ to Safeguard Student Online Activity
SALT LAKE CITY, UT - Cymphonix has announced that Attleboro Public Schools in Attleboro, MA has integrated three Cymphonix Network Composer™ DC30XS appliances and one Network Composer DC50XS appliance to limit non-critical web browsing, stop anonymous proxies and other filter bypass methods, and prioritize bandwidth so educators have faster access to the tools they need and use the most.
"When I first came on board with Attleboro Schools, they were only using IP Cop", said Jonathan Plourde, Network Systems Administrator. Plourde gained experience with Network Composer while working as the Network Systems Administrator for Westport School District in Westport, MA. "We moved from Websense to Cymphonix and within 2 weeks the results were noticeable. I liked the configurability of the product, the ability to shape my bandwidth, and the fact that I could create customized groupings for teachers, students, and faculty."
Once Plourde signed on with Attleboro Schools, he knew he needed to make a drastic change to their current network. "Even though I was 90% certain that I would again move forward with the Network Composer, I wanted to do one last competitive analysis. I looked at iPrisim's Command Center, as well as many others, but none of them could even come close to offering the same features...let alone in one self contained box."
"Cymphonix regularly fills the gaps that traditional web filters leave open - especially in schools," said Kevin Santiago, CEO at Cymphonix. "We're happy to be able to provide Attleboro Schools with better visibility, optimization and automation of their Internet security."
