Case Study: FFVA Mutual Insurance Company achieves HIPAA compliance and eliminates admin-rights risk with BeyondTrust PowerBroker & BeyondInsight

FFVA Mutual Insurance Company Achieves HIPPA Compliance

FFVA Mutual Insurance Company is an A.M. Best A- rated specialty workers’ compensation insurer that has virtualized most of its infrastructure. The company struggled with users having local admin rights, bringing in USB drives and installing unauthorized software, which led to corrupted systems, frequent 3–24 hour outages, heavy remediation effort, and increased security and HIPAA compliance risk.

FFVA implemented BeyondTrust PowerBroker for Windows with the BeyondInsight platform to enforce least privilege, centrally manage application approvals, and scan for vulnerabilities. The deployment removed admin rights at scale, reduced incidents to roughly 20% of previous levels, enabled a lighter antivirus solution, improved patching and visibility, and restored both IT and end-user productivity while supporting HIPAA compliance.
