Case Study: University of Tennessee Health Science Center achieves faster threat detection and streamlined security operations with Carbon Black

UTHSC Gains Additional Visibility With a Cloud Platform

University of Tennessee Health Science Center (UTHSC) faced inadequate antivirus protection and limited visibility across its ~3,000–employee campus, leaving the small IT security team stretched thin. To improve endpoint defense, UTHSC selected Carbon Black and deployed CB Defense along with the CB ThreatSight managed service.

Carbon Black delivered a rapid, automated deployment that dramatically reduced the team's weekly console time from 4–5 hours to about 30–45 minutes. CB ThreatSight provided continuous, actionable monitoring—identifying and enabling the team to block a weaponized‑document outbreak at the exchange—and gave UTHSC enterprise‑level threat visibility and containment for roughly the cost of a full‑time employee.
