Frederick County Public Schools sought to modernize its web filtering approach by moving away from hardware‑based solutions that caused reliability and compliance issues. Frequent network crashes disrupted service and threatened CIPA compliance, while complex single sign‑on requirements were difficult to scale across a large district.
