Regional Hospital Protects Critical Healthcare Data and Achieves Regulatory Compliance

Overview
A leading regional hospital in the North-eastern U.S. offers a variety of clinical services, from cardiology, critical care, and oncology, and surgical procedures to fitness, wellness, and education programs. The hospital is proud to be accredited by the Joint Commission, and has received a variety of awards, including recognition by the American Nurses Credentialing Centre.

Business Challenge
Like most healthcare providers, the hospital relies on its network to support its most important patient services and business operations. Maintaining maximum security is a top priority. Approximately 1,200 users depend on the network, and the facility is dedicated to complying with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and other industry regulations.

Solutions
The hospital has employed Check Point security solutions for years, and depends on redundant 12400 Appliances to provide complete, high availability protection against evolving threats.
To help the organization complement its firewall and IPS solutions, Check Point recommended the cloud-based SandBlast Threat Emulation Service. This convenient, zero-day sandboxing solution not only offers the protection the healthcare provider requires, but is simple to set up and manage.
