Case Study: Memphis Shelby County Schools strengthens Zero Trust security with iboss Zero Trust SASE

Memphis Shelby County Schools secures 200+ schools for 106,000+ students with iboss

Memphis Shelby County Schools, the largest school district in Tennessee serving over 106,000 students, faced the challenge of modernizing its aging IT infrastructure. The district needed to replace expiring hardware and fragmented VPN solutions to improve content filtering, enable self-harm detection, implement data loss prevention, and bolster its overall security posture, all while navigating internal leadership changes.

The district implemented a Zero Trust security strategy using the iboss Zero Trust SASE platform. The iboss solution provided cloud-based secure access to replace legacy VPNs, offered agentless browser isolation for third-party devices, and enabled role-based access control. As a result, Memphis Shelby County Schools significantly reduced its attack surface, gained full visibility across all campuses, maintained vendor compliance, and achieved substantial savings on infrastructure costs by avoiding new hardware expenditures.
