Success Stories
ORCA experienced a significant security event where a firewall misconfiguration led to an opportunity for bots on the internet to launch a brute force attack against the exposed service in an attempt to gain unauthorized access. Thanks to the Rapid 7 solution and MGT’s 24×7 SOC, the attack was detected and the firewall rule was disabled. The security event logs collected in Rapid 7 IDR allowed ORCA to confirm that none of the login attempts during the brute force attack were successful.

Bento is an easy way to get a national picture on so many of the questions we are looking to answer, like what curriculum teachers are using and how much money districts are spending per student. I also would have loved to have a resource like Bento in graduate school.

The network downtime we were experiencing became much more than just an inconvenience. It was impacting customer service, our reputation, and the ability to operate on a satisfactory level. Once they established a QoS for us, our network operation and call quality issues were a thing of the past. They began with a network assessment that provided a detailed map of the network, traffic flow, and identified weaknesses or vulnerabilities in the design and/or configuration.

IT Manager, SouthCoast Health, South Carolina and Georgia
MGT is professional in its approach, very patient in learning DLIR processes and delivering customized and NIST aligned policy infrastructure to the DLIR, State of Hawaii.
Ryan V. Buillard
Director, IT, Department of Labor & Industrial Relations (DLIR), State of Hawaii
The network downtime severely affected customer service, our reputation, and operational efficiency. Seeking assistance, we reached out to MGT. Since then, our network operation and support have vastly improved, providing greater stability. Previously plagued by frequent downtime, such occurrences are now rare and well-understood. Our network operation and call quality issues are now a thing of the past!
