Case Study: Nelnet improves vulnerability prioritization and compliance reporting with RiskSense

Nelnet, Inc. Stays Ahead of Cyber Attackers with Risksense

Nelnet, Inc., a diversified financial services and education-related company, struggled with an overwhelming volume of vulnerability data, mixed scanner inputs, and multiple compliance reporting demands. Its security team needed a way to make sense of the flood of information, prioritize the biggest threats, and better communicate risk to executives.

RiskSense implemented the RiskSense Platform, giving Nelnet dashboards, reporting, drill-downs, and the RS³ security score to prioritize remediation and track vulnerability trends. As a result, Nelnet improved visibility into its most critical vulnerabilities, saw declining risk trends over time, expanded coverage across more assets, and gained a clearer way to demonstrate security progress and justify additional resources.
