Case Study: Frenship ISD achieves enhanced detection and response with Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR

Frenship ISD Enhances Detection and Response Capabilities with Taegis™ ManagedXDR

Frenship Independent School District (ISD), a Texas K-12 district serving more than 10,500 students across 14 campuses, needed to upgrade its security program after a potential incident revealed gaps in 24/7 visibility and expertise. CTO Joe Barnett sought a solution to protect student data and maintain parent trust, and chose Secureworks, deploying Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR to address those challenges.

Secureworks implemented Taegis ManagedXDR to deliver around-the-clock monitoring, a single-pane dashboard with alert context and remediation guidance, proactive threat hunting, and live-chat access to security operations experts. The result was clearer, consolidated visibility across Frenship’s environment, shorter investigation-to-remediation cycles, continuous expert support and cost-effective pricing—improving detection and response and increasing confidence in protecting student data under Secureworks’ management.
