CASE STUDY:
Affordable SOC Services for Community College
BRIEF:
A community college with limited resources faced growing cybersecurity threats, including ransomware and phishing campaigns targeting faculty and staff. While the IT team managed day-to-day operations well, they lacked the around-the-clock visibility needed to detect and respond to attacks.
ROLE OF MAX2:
Max² partnered with the college and a cybersecurity partner to design and implement a cost-effective SOC strategy.

WHAT WAS DELIVERED?
The college gained access to affordable, enterprise-grade monitoring at a fraction of the typical cost, allowing them to significantly enhance their defenses without straining the budget.
OUTCOME:
Suspicious activity was flagged quickly, reducing the institution’s exposure to ransomware and other high-impact threats. Leadership benefited from clear visibility into cyber risks and developed greater confidence that security investments were delivering measurable value.
