Securing the Open Campus
University IT teams are often outnumbered. They must support diverse environments, from research labs requiring high-speed throughput to dorms requiring strict access controls, often with legacy equipment.
The rapid onboarding of new students and devices every semester creates a 'configuration drift' nightmare, where unauthorized changes by student workers or contractors can go unnoticed until they cause an outage.
- Small IT teams supporting large campus networks
- High turnover of student devices & users
- Budget constraints requiring high-value tooling
- Compliance with FERPA and internal usage policies
