Security Certification

State and local governments rely on information technology to help deliver quality services to constituents. Failure or even brief disruption in a state or local governmental agency’s network can affect law enforcement, public health, citizen privacy, or many components of modern life, and can even impact national security.
Network automation is one way that state and local governments accommodate shrinking budgets, staff cutbacks, and increased workloads and still perform at a high level and plan for the future. Network automation frees IT staff to implement cloud projects, incorporate virtualization, deploy IPv6, and accommodate compliance issues.
Without network automation and control, state and local governments face:
- Unnecessary risk of downtime with limited and unreliable disaster-recovery options across offices, buildings, or campuses
- Exposure to penalties and sanctions for compliance standards and best practices violations
- Burdensome requirements for local expertise and knowledge to maintain disparate assets and tools
- Increased risk of change as more planned and unplanned modifications occur
- New risk and high vulnerability to both internal and external attacks and threats with multiple access points
- Disparate, inconsistent network infrastructure services with no centralized visibility and management
- Audit exposure with limited tracking and logs for compliance requirements and/or troubleshooting needs

Success Stories
Your peers in state and local agencies are leveraging Infoblox around the country.
Leaders at the state and local level are discovering how Infoblox solutions can help maximize staff time and reduce capital expenditures in these tight-budget times. Here is how one of our state customers appraises the impact Infoblox has had on its operations:
“DNSone has managed our growth very well and the amount of work it saves is just unbelievable. It was the easiest cutover we have ever done.”
— Arizona Department of Transportation Brian Quinn, TOC Manager of Network Services
Infoblox has worked to improve conditions at the local level with similar control efficiencies and management results:
“With more than 9,000 employees on our network, we realized our DNS infrastructure needed redundancy and automatic failover. DNS is a critical piece of network infrastructure and merits a dedicated appliance approach. Hennepin County chose Infoblox because it simplifies administration, improves security, and offered an easy migration path for existing data. Additionally, one of the biggest reasons was that it has a web-based management console. We really like the ability to easily update and manage the devices.”
— Hennepin County Operations, Hennepin County, Minnesota Marciene Ingram, Network Communications Security & Internet Team Lead
