The Allot Traffic Intelligence solution assures learning continuity and excellent digital experience for online learning and the university’s mission-critical applications.

## The Need

With the growth of online learning and services, universities must have complete visibility and control over their networks. Excellent digital experience is vital for student success and employee productivity. Additionally, the massive shift to online learning and WFA has dramatically increased the number of digital interfaces, enlarging the attack surface and increasing vulnerability to cyber disruption. IT must safeguard the network and minimize downtime caused by DDoS attacks and other cyber threats.
