Case Study: Eustace Independent School District boosts security and saves time with Action1

Eustace ISD Automates Patching, Improves Security and Prevents Ransomware Infections with Action1

Eustace Independent School District (ISD), a public school district in Texas serving more than 1,700 students and 320 employees, was struggling to manage operating system and third-party updates manually. The IT team needed better visibility into endpoints and a more reliable way to patch vulnerabilities as ransomware threats against schools continued to rise.

Using Action1’s patch management and endpoint visibility platform, Eustace ISD automated OS and third-party patching with policy-based automation, identified outdated Windows 10 systems and missing updates for apps like Adobe, Zoom, and Firefox, and removed unwanted software. Action1 helped the district improve security and reduce ransomware risk, while saving the IT team about a week of work each month.
