Case Study: GGNet Technologies achieves FERPA-compliant, reliable school backups with MSP360

MSP360 Helps a Chicago MSP to Offer FERPA-Compliant Backup for Schools

GGNet Technologies, a Chicago-based MSP founded in 2006 that manages backup and IT services for approximately two hundred primary and secondary schools, needed a backup solution that met strict FERPA requirements (encryption in transit and at rest), guaranteed rapid recoveries, and minimized operational risk and liability. To address these challenges, GGNet turned to MSP360 and its MSP360 Managed Backup Service.

Using MSP360, GGNet disperses backups across multiple public clouds and geographic regions, enforces pre-upload encryption and temporary API tokens for access control, and performs quarterly trial recoveries to validate restore readiness. MSP360’s ease of deployment and low cost have allowed GGNet to scale to more school clients, maintain strong backup margins, and deliver reliable, FERPA-compliant backup and recovery for its education customers.
