AT&T Florida State College Digital Transformation

We designed an innovative, tailor-made network solution for Seminole State College in Florida, addressing their unique connectivity and security challenges with a customized approach.

The Proposed Solution

The college faced distinct hurdles, including the need for reliable interconnectivity across multiple campus locations and integration with the Florida Railway System. While connected through the AT&T ASE network, concerns remained around data security—particularly for federally funded research projects—and the underutilization of existing carrier-based internet services.

To solve these issues, we executed a complete ground-up network infrastructure redesign. This included implementing primary, secondary, and tertiary connectivity paths, with built-in failover through 5G wireless backup. A dynamic routing framework was established to prioritize ASE circuits while intelligently falling back to internet or DSL paths as needed. Importantly, all SD-WAN traffic was encrypted end-to-end using 256-bit AES encryption, ensuring secure data transmission across all environments.

Final Results

The result was a highly resilient, flexible, and secure network architecture—purpose-built to meet Seminole State College’s operational, academic, and research needs with precision and long-term reliability.
