Case Study: King Edward VII's Hospital achieves consolidated email protection and secures VIP patient data with Barracuda Networks

Leading private hospital consolidates email protection to secure VIP guests’ data “Crown Jewels”

King Edward VII’s Hospital, a long-established private hospital on London’s Harley Street that treats many VIPs including Royal Family members, faced elevated risk from email-borne attacks targeting sensitive patient data. A small IT team was managing multiple point-product email security tools and preparing for an Exchange-to-Office 365 migration, creating a need to consolidate protection and reduce operational overhead.

Working with partner Altinet, the hospital deployed Barracuda Total Email Protection—bringing together cloud-to-cloud backup, encrypted email, AI phishing and advanced threat protection, outbound filtering, archiving and incident response. Deployment was seamless, centralizing management, freeing IT resources, improving productivity, and delivering unified threat protection to reduce the reputational and financial risks of a breach while enabling further value during the Office 365 migration.
