Waseda University fortifies data security and simplifies site management with Kinsta

Waseda University, a research-intensive institution in Tokyo, needed a safer and more efficient way to manage hundreds of faculty and user websites on its Waseda WWW Service platform. The university faced security concerns, complex overlapping systems, high hosting costs, and the challenge of giving users flexibility while ensuring WordPress and PHP stayed properly updated and compliant.

Kinsta’s Managed WordPress Hosting provided the solution, along with free unlimited migrations and hands-on support for moving hundreds of sites, including complex static PHP setups. With Kinsta, Waseda University improved security, centralized site management in MyKinsta, simplified inventory and maintenance tasks, and maintained strong UX without increasing costs.
