Case Study: TEC Partnership achieves proactive campus security with Palo Alto Networks and KHIPU XMDR

TEC Partnership reduces security incidents by 30% with Palo Alto Networks

TEC Partnership, one of England's largest providers of further and higher education, faced immense cybersecurity challenges safeguarding a sprawling campus of almost 20 sites, over 10,000 students, and more than 3,100 endpoints. Their goal was to lower the total cost of security operations without compromising on quality. To address this, they worked with Palo Alto Networks and their partner KHIPU Networks to implement a comprehensive solution.

The solution was KHIPU's eXtended Managed Detection and Response (XMDR) service, powered by the Palo Alto Networks portfolio including Cortex XDR, Cortex XSOAR, and ML-Powered Next-Generation Firewalls. This provided TEC Partnership with 24/7/365 proactive threat protection. The results were significant, including a 30% reduction in security incidents and near-zero time from threat visibility to prevention, all while freeing up staff resources equivalent to one full-time employee annually.
