DDoS Protection installed quickly across 21 K-12 campuses 

International Leadership of Texas (ILTexas) is a free K-12 charter school program serving over 23,000 children on 21 campuses. In 2022, ILTexas recognized the need to be vigilant against cyberattacks, and to move quickly to block them. After identifying one threat during a testing period, ILTexas asked Spectrum Business for an immediate way to raise its security threshold. 

After a thorough systemic review by Spectrum Business, a 24/7 threat detection and mitigation solution, DDoS Protection, was installed at its network center. ILTexas was counting on quick deployment, and Spectrum Business completed the installation in just 72 hours.

“We need support as committed as we are to making success happen,” Kevin Hanson, Executive Director of Technology, International Leadership of Texas, says. “When you have that kind of relationship with a trusted partner like Spectrum Business, you can accomplish a great deal.”
