Case Study: Educational Institution improves IT SLA from weeks to days with Venafi

Educational Institution - Customer Case Study

An educational institution was struggling to manage cryptographic keys and certificates with manual methods like spreadsheets, which made it hard to spot expiring certificates, outdated encryption, and other security risks. The institution turned to Venafi, using TrustAuthority SSL and TrustForce SSL to improve outage prevention and certificate remediation.

Venafi helped the institution quickly renew and deploy certificates, integrate with systems like CAs, databases, load balancers, and web servers, and uncover previously unknown keys and certificates. As a result, Venafi improved the school’s internal IT services SLA from weeks to days and increased key and certificate visibility by 76–100%.
