Case Study: Leading Nonprofit Health Company achieves unified, audit-ready compliance and secure credentialed UNIX scans with BeyondTrust

A Smooth Road to Compliance for a Large Health Plan

A leading nonprofit integrated health plan serving over 8.6 million members across 35 hospitals and 431 medical office buildings faced an aging, fragmented risk and compliance infrastructure. Multiple point products fed status data into custom SQL dashboards, requiring manual coding and leaving the IT team unable to efficiently perform deep, credentialed UNIX vulnerability scans or reliably prepare for SOX and HIPAA audits without exposing root credentials.

The company deployed an integrated McAfee compliance suite (Vulnerability Manager, Solidcore, Risk Advisor, ePO, Total Protection) with BeyondTrust PowerBroker Servers to centrally delegate privileges and enable secure credentialed scans. The combined solution delivered a single, risk‑prioritized view of vulnerabilities, streamlined regulatory audits, protected root credentials, and was fully implemented in three months—improving compliance posture and operational visibility across 300,000 endpoints and 20,000 servers.
