Technology infrastructure for education.
Campus networking, security and monitoring sized to the institution's actual staffing and budget — not a generic enterprise template.
Reference architecture — illustrative01 Industry problem
A campus network typically serves staff, students, guests and lab/research segments simultaneously, each with a different trust level, often maintained by a small internal IT team without dedicated security staff.
02 Reference architecture
Segmented VLANs (staff, student, guest Wi-Fi, labs, CCTV) on a routed core, with RADIUS/Active Directory-backed authentication and NAC checking device posture before granting access.
03 Solutions
- Campus networking and Wi-Fi
- Firewall and NAC
- RADIUS and Active Directory integration
- DHCP and DNS, segmented by VLAN
- Dedicated CCTV network segment
- Lab networks isolated from administrative systems
04 Security
NAC and RADIUS at the access layer, firewall policy between segments, and log ingestion from firewall, RADIUS, AD and core switches feeding a SIEM tuned to reduce noise from normal student-network behaviour.
05 Monitoring
Network and infrastructure monitoring with alerting scoped to distinguish genuine incidents from expected patterns like exam-period Wi-Fi load spikes.
06 Backup & DR
Immutable backup of directory services, DNS/DHCP configuration and any locally hosted academic systems, with restore testing on the same cadence as any other client.
