The Challenge
Reading School District is a large public school district in southeastern Pennsylvania, serving 20 learning institutions and nearly 20,000 students and faculty. As one of the largest districts in the state with thousands of end-points, the team responsible for securing those digital assets required a modern solution to track, monitor, and mitigate potential risks. Manual patching was time consuming and impossible to keep pace with, taking time away from other critical responsibilities. It appeared the only way to build an adequate program would require multiple tools and considerable financial investment. Worried that deploying and maintaining multiple disparate solutions would be inefficient, ineffective, and expensive, the team sought a singular solution that could assist in discovery, prioritization, and remediation of vulnerabilities from a centralized dashboard; ideally automating the patch deployment process as well. Enter: Vicarius.
The Solution
By deploying ​​vRx as an all-in-one vulnerability assessment and remediation solution, the Reading School District was able to mature their vulnerability management posture, while prioritizing the risks that matter most to their unique infrastructure – all without the need for multiple tools and licenses. Utilizing Auto Actions, the team was also able to schedule and deploy updates and patches automatically, ensuring that down-time is minimized and their end-points are secure. Bundling the capabilities of discovery, prioritization, and mitigation with Vicarius saved the Reading School District considerable budget and allowed the team to focus their time and resources on mission-critical tasks instead.
