Case Study: Alamo Colleges achieves automated malware eradication and restored endpoint security with Malwarebytes

Alamo Colleges District eradicates malware from endpoints

Alamo Colleges District, a five‑college system in San Antonio, was seeing increasing malware infections that slipped past its Symantec antivirus, forcing IT teams to spend significant time investigating issues and re‑imaging faculty and staff machines. The district needed stronger endpoint protection that would preserve the open academic environment and integrate with existing security tools.

After a successful proof of concept, Alamo Colleges deployed Malwarebytes Endpoint Security—silently installed with baseline and custom policies and selective exclusions—across endpoints and critical servers. The solution integrated with existing defenses and their SIEM, delivering centralized visibility, automated cleanup, and a dramatic reduction in infections, freeing IT staff from re‑imaging work and allowing them to focus on strategic priorities while keeping systems accessible and secure.
