As higher education continues integrating new technologies, institutions are rethinking how they manage and protect data. This shift is driven by the need to enhance operational efficiency, ensure campus safety, and uncover meaningful insights from the vast amount of information generated daily.
In an era where technology is the backbone of education, institutions across the United States are facing unprecedented challenges in adapting to the fast-evolving digital landscape. To empower these institutions with cutting-edge IT solutions, WEI is proud to announce its partnership with the NorthEast Regional Computing Program (NERCOMP) as a Solutions Partner.

The support CyberTrust receives from its higher education consortium members is paramount, especially with the all-new Cyber Range at Bridgewater State University (BSU) opening earlier this year.
