## Description

The Guildhall School of Music and Drama is looking to replace its existing pair of Juniper SRX550 firewalls located in two separate locations\. Any recommendations should not be limited to but must exceed the current production firewalls, be scalable, fault tolerant and future proof\. The school is in the process of migrating its core systems into the Microsoft Azure cloud making its reliance on new firewalls mission critical\. Existing firewalls service staff, students, remote working, VPNs, halls of residence and events which are often streamed to national media organisations\.
