Acquisition draws RJS Systems to Astaro partner program
When Sophos announced its acquisition of network security company, Astaro, RJS Software Systems, a long time Sophos partner, felt the Astaro product line would make a good addition to their product portfolio.
"I expect I’ll be able to close more business simply because I can offer my clients complete protection. The combination of Sophos and Astaro products is the only program I know that provides partners with this advantage."
- Josh More, Senior security consultant, RJS Software SystemsWest Carroll Special School District Gets a Lesson in Security with Astaro
The West Carroll Special School District lacked insight into the school’s network security and wished to extend their network to include wireless connectivity. With the help of Syndesi Solutions and Astaro the west Tennessee school district was able to extend a wireless network and reduces costs.
"Coordinating firewall and wireless security in one solution has saved us a considerable amount of time as well as money."

NorthRidge Church and Christian Academy is a not-for-profit church organization and has an on premise school and preschool associated with the church. The organization felt their Cisco ASA 5505 firewall provided adequate protection but they were having issues making changes to the firewall configuration. Additionally, the Cisco product was difficult to manage forcing the not-for-profit organization to hire an outside IT consultant to make even minor changes. This was proving to be costly and slowed the change processes down.
"We were able to maintain the integrity of our network without compromising on security and while reducing our management costs."
