Scores a Touchdown with the Pittsburgh SteelersThe
Fortinet Security Fabric has empowered the Pittsburgh Steelers to
converge networking and security across their entire environment to
reduce risk, increase visibility, and ensure optimal
performance.
- Protecting corporate and football operations:
FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) with AI-powered
security protect all traffic traversing the network and provide
deep visibility across the entire environment. And FortiAnalyzer
compiles logs and data needed to inform critical business
decisions.
- Ensuring a positive in-stadium experience across
merchandising, ticketing, and internet access: At Acrisure
Stadium, FortiGate NGFWs, FortiSwitch Ethernet switches, and
FortiAP access points along with FortiMonitor connect and protect
public and private internet access, ensuring high availability and
a positive user experience even on busy game days. Additionally,
FortiExtender wireless WAN gateways secure retail pop-ups and
provide backup cellular connectivity to critical systems.
- Secure remote access while on the road: The
Steelers utilize Fortinet ZTNA (zero-trust network access) and the
FortiClient unified agent to keep remote employees and scouts
connected to important assets.
The Steelers and Fortinet have already begun planning future
integrations beyond the 2024–2025 season to continue providing the
best technology experience for coaches, players, operations, and
fans.
Supporting quotes: “Partnering with an
industry-leading organization like Fortinet ensures our network
remains available and we stay ahead of sophisticated threats. The
Fortinet Security Fabric is critical to all our operations, whether
a coach accesses a scouting directory on the road, a fan uses the
in-stadium internet, or the back office closes a deal. The
Pittsburgh Steelers are known for our legendary defense, and we
consider the Fortinet Security Fabric a cornerstone of our
technology strategy.”-- Scott Phelps, Vice President of
Technology at the Pittsburgh Steelers
“Fortinet is honored to be a ‘Proud Partner’ to the Pittsburgh
Steelers and a driving force for their technology approach. By
leveraging the Fortinet Security Fabric, the Steelers can converge
networking and security functions across their hybrid environment
to ensure traffic is protected, connections are always available,
and users have a superior experience. We look forward to continuing
our partnership with the Steelers and working together to further
enhance their network with the Fortinet Security Fabric.”--
