Case Study: Georgia Highlands Medical Services strengthens security and compliance with Carousel Industries and Fortinet

Carousel and Fortinet Boosts Georgia Highlands Medical Services Security, Privacy, and Compliance

Georgia Highlands Medical Services, a nonprofit community health center with five locations in Georgia, needed to strengthen security for sensitive patient data, maintain HIPAA compliance, and prepare its network for future growth like telemedicine. The organization turned to Carousel Industries and Fortinet for a more robust perimeter security approach, including Fortinet FortiGate appliances and managed services.

Carousel Industries implemented FortiGate security at each site with a unified threat management bundle and ongoing managed services to protect the organization around the clock. As a result, Georgia Highlands Medical Services improved visibility across its entire network and endpoints, strengthened compliance efforts, and built the infrastructure foundation needed to support future telehealth services and expansion.
