Case Study: SAU 67 (School Administrative Unit 67) achieves centralized automated patching and stronger cybersecurity with Heimdal Security

How SAU 67 Achieved Excellence

School Administrative Unit 67 (SAU 67), which supports nearly 2,000 students across four schools and a 546-person staff in central New Hampshire, struggled with fragmented endpoint tools and WSUS limitations that left Windows and third‑party application patching inefficient and manual. Seeking a unified, automated approach, SAU 67 evaluated and selected Heimdal Security to address these gaps after a successful 30‑day proof of concept.

Heimdal Security deployed a single platform combining OS and third‑party patch management plus Endpoint Detection and Response and Threat Hunting capabilities, giving SAU 67 centralized visibility and automated patching rules across groups. The result: manual patching was largely eliminated, IT time spent on updates dropped significantly, vulnerability management was streamlined, and Heimdal Security’s EDR blocked attempted attack tools during a third‑party audit, earning praise from the auditors.
