Lincoln, Neb. – On October 1, 2010, Bentley University successfully implemented Awareity’s award-winning MOAT (Managed Ongoing Awareness and Trust) tools to address obligations for security awareness, risk management, privacy, compliance and more.
As one of the nation’s leading business schools, Bentley University understands the critical role of communicating and sharing appropriate information and awareness with employees in achieving sustainable high performance. Like other colleges and universities, Bentley is working hard to help their personnel improve efficiencies, reduce costs and leverage limited resources. By implementing proven tools like MOAT, Bentley University is significantly reducing administrative and operational overhead, as well as reducing expensive training related costs immediately and ongoing.
Bentley employs more than 600 staff employees and almost 500 full and part-time faculty members. MOAT allows campus administrators to upload customized policies and awareness tools including training presentations, case studies, procedures, videos, maps, spreadsheets, etc. into the secure Bentley University Awareness Vault and share documents with appropriate personnel on an ongoing basis as updates and changes are needed.
By utilizing MOAT, all university staff better understand their individual roles, responsibilities and compliance requirements with new and updated federal and state regulations. All customized policies, training sessions and individual certifications are automatically tracked and documented so MOAT Administrators have easy access to on-demand progress reports and preparedness metrics.
Bentley University’s Chief Information Security Administrator, Patty Patria said, “Bentley recently implemented MOAT to deliver and track compliance with various institutional policies and training sessions, some of which are required by state or federal law. Within 30 days of launch, the majority of our employees in MOAT had reviewed and agreed to all required materials. The system was straightforward to setup and administer, and we look forward to expanding our potential uses of MOAT.”
