Case Study: Farmers Telecommunications Cooperative strengthens cybersecurity with NISC

Farmers Telecommunications Cooperative strengthens cybersecurity over 25+ years with NISC

Farmers Telecommunications Cooperative (FTC), a long-time NISC member, sought to bolster its cybersecurity defenses against increasingly sophisticated threats like ransomware and phishing. The cooperative needed a more robust and proactive plan to protect its network and customer data, moving beyond its existing, non-redundant firewall solution.

NISC implemented a comprehensive suite of cybersecurity services for FTC, beginning with a redundant firewall system and expanding to include its Incident Detection and Response service and Backup Management. This solution provided FTC with 24/7 network monitoring, automated threat response, and reliable data backups. As a result of working with NISC, FTC has experienced no major security breaches and achieved peace of mind, having established a formal policy for responding to cyber threats.
