Case Study: York University discovers 2.5x more devices with runZero

York University discovers 2.5x more assets with runZero

York University faced significant gaps in its security program, including a lack of centralized visibility into its network assets. Their manual approach to vulnerability detection and response was not scalable for their small team, and existing tools like Nmap and Tenable Nessus were insufficient. To address this challenge, they turned to the runZero platform for cyber asset attack surface management.

By implementing runZero, York University gained immediate and comprehensive visibility into its environment. The solution enabled them to discover 2.5 times more assets than previously known, increasing from 10,000 to 25,000 devices. This greatly enhanced visibility allowed the security team to better protect assets, reduce overall risk, and increase operational efficiency through automation, ultimately securing the university community more effectively.
