Monterey One Water, which treats 17M gallons of wastewater daily, partnered with Fortinet to secure critical OT/IT systems across 30 pump stations and treatment facilities. Using FortiGate NGFWs, FortiSwitches, FortiAPs, and FortiAnalyzer, they gained visibility, segmentation, and automated security. Switch deployments now take 5 minutes instead of 90, backups and documentation are streamlined, and troubleshooting saves days each quarter. The network blocks 2,000 risky connections weekly and has nearly eliminated SCADA false alarms. Results include stronger cybersecurity, faster incident response, better performance, and reduced TCO—all with minimal impact during rollout.
