Lessons any organization can steal: How North Carolina secures K–12 schools with runZero

It distills four broadly applicable lessons: start with comprehensive asset visibility, use lightweight tools to scale, centralize oversight to amplify small teams, and explicitly manage legacy systems with compensating controls.
