Fortinet to secure BTI Sita network

MUMBAI: BTI Sita Business Travel has decided to deploy Fortinet's FortiGate integrated network security appliances to secure its business data after evaluating various security vendors.

Richard Bright, head (IT), BTI Sita, said, “We chose Fortinet over the others because it gave us the best scalability, upgradeability, efficient bandwidth management and optimization, superb content filtering, and awesome reporting facilities. All at the best price points, Fortinet gives us the best security at high performance, but low costs.”

The company said that BTI Sita purchased several Fortinet's 'FortiGate' platforms, including one FortiGate-200A system at its headquarters in Delhi, five FortiGate-100A systems in satellite offices around the country. It is also testing two FortiGate-60 systems, which would be rolled out.

Vishak Raman, country manager, Fortinet Inc, said, “Travel companies typically have high data traffic and stringent security requirements due to the confidentiality of the information they handle, such as customer credit card numbers and personal information. BTI Sita's confidence in our FortiGate multi-threat security products and services is a testament to our commitment to provide the best technology value to our customers.
