Case Study: Hanover School Division achieves stronger Google Workspace security and student safety with ManagedMethods

How One Manitoba School Division Improved Google Workspace for Education Monitoring With Cloud Monitor

Hanover School Division, a Manitoba school district serving 8,000 students, took a multi-layered approach to cybersecurity and student safety for its Google Workspace environment. Their challenge was gaining comprehensive visibility into user activity and data across various apps like Drive and Chat to effectively monitor for risks and threats. This led them to seek a solution from the vendor ManagedMethods.

The solution was the ManagedMethods Cloud Monitor platform, which provided the deep visibility and automated monitoring they lacked. The results included faster detection of cyber threats and safety issues like cyberbullying, significant time savings for the IT team through automated reporting and remediation, and enhanced data loss prevention. ManagedMethods delivered these results at a cost the district found to be significantly lower than other security tools.
