Cybersecurity threats in higher education are growing, but many institutions lack the resources for 24/7 protection. This Q&A spotlights a powerful public-private partnership between TekStream, Amazon Web Services and Splunk that’s helping universities close that gap — while also preparing students for high-demand cyber careers. Through a student-powered SOC model, learners gain real-world, enterprise-level experience managing live threats while campuses benefit from round-the-clock protection. The program’s shared intelligence network now spans 45 universities, creating a powerful, collaborative defense system. Download the paper to see how this model is reshaping cybersecurity readiness and workforce development in higher education.
