MECE Credit Union: How Blumira Empowered a One-Man IT Team

When it comes to protecting sensitive financial data and ensuring the security of their members’ information, credit unions often find themselves in a challenging position. With limited IT resources and the ever-present threat of cyber attacks, these organizations must navigate a delicate balance between providing exceptional service and maintaining a robust cybersecurity posture. MECE Credit Union, a financial institution that has been serving rural electric cooperative employees and their families since 1975, found itself at a crossroads regarding its network security.

Ray Smith, the VP of IT at MECE Credit Union, shouldered the responsibility of keeping the organization’s networks up and running while also ensuring the highest level of security.
