Your expertise in how to modernize not only security technology, but network & endpoint tools will allow you to communicate how higher education clients can build a foundation for stronger campus security and many of the security improvements auditors / compliance bodies often look for (e.g. unified monitoring, consistent configuration, fewer vendor‑sprawl exposures).
