Ball State University Logo

Like so many higher ed institutions, Ball State has a relatively small but mighty cybersecurity team. Understanding that around-the-clock monitoring and response is essential for protecting the university from cyberattack, the BSU team brought in Pondurance to provide managed detection and response (MDR) services and extend those SOC working hours to 24/7/365.

 

In this case study, see how Pondurance MDR, Digital Forensics and Incident Response Services, and Penetration and Red Team testing gives BSU peace of mind.
