- University of Missouri
-
-
The University of Missouri's department of Residential Life has 230 computers managed by only two IT staff. The machines were becoming riddled with viruses due to personal web surfing. The malware infections were coming in so fast that machines were being rendered unusable. Already strapped for resources, the team rebuilt one to two machines per week, leaving no time for other duties. Justin Harris, User Support Analyst, understood the need for adding layered protection in the cloud: "Our endpoint security used to be enough, but it can't keep up against today's threats. We still need it for remediation, but we needed that extra layer of defense at the perimeter. Each level catches more than the last," Leiss explains. "The web is the new battleground for security and we needed a web filtering solution."
