What does it take to build a resilient cybersecurity strategy in higher education - especially with limited resources and rising threats?

Tobey Coffman, Chief Information Security Officer at Ball State University, and Ron Pelletier, founder of Pondurance, share how their partnership grew from a single pen test into a fully managed, 24/7 detection and response program. Together, they break down the real-world challenges campuses face, the tipping point that led Ball State to invest in around-the-clock protection, and what makes a vendor-university relationship truly work.

Whether you’re just getting started or looking to deepen your institution’s cybersecurity posture, this conversation delivers insight, strategy, and lessons learned from the front lines.
