Case Study: Richmond Upon Thames College achieves full network visibility and stronger IoT security with Ordr

Richmond Upon Thames College secures 3,500 students and 300 staff with Ordr

Richmond Upon Thames College, a large London-based further education college, needed full visibility into its sprawling network to identify and secure every connected device. This challenge was driven by the need to safeguard students, especially minors, and to manage risks from Shadow IT and unsecured student BYOD devices. To address this, the college turned to vendor Ordr and implemented its AI Protect for Segmentation solution.

The Ordr system provided continuous, passive, and agentless discovery, delivering granular visibility into all devices and identifying their risks. It integrated with the college's existing Splunk SIEM to provide real-time alerts. As a result, the college gained unprecedented visibility and control, enabling it to quickly identify vulnerabilities and automatically isolate any compromised devices to prevent lateral movement, thereby significantly enhancing its network security and safeguarding efforts.
