Case Study: CoxHealth achieves scalable, resilient high-performance network security with Check Point Software’s Maestro Hyperscale Orchestrator and Quantum Security Gateways

CoxHealth Dynamically Scales Security With CheckPoint Maestro Hyperscale Orchestrator

CoxHealth, a leading regional healthcare system in southwest Missouri serving patients across multiple hospitals and clinics, faced a sudden surge in network demand when COVID-19 forced 3,500 employees to work from home and temporary testing kiosks were deployed. Bandwidth usage tripled, VPNs and outlying clinic links strained firewalls, and the organization risked service disruptions that could affect patient care and compliance.

CoxHealth upgraded to Check Point Quantum Security Gateways with the Check Point Maestro Hyperscale Orchestrator and R80 Security Management, enabling rapid, elastic scaling (up to the equivalent capacity of many gateways and Terabit-per-second throughput) and centralized management. The deployment was completed in weeks and delivered resilient, high-performance security, eliminated firewall capacity risks, simplified policy management, and restored confidence in network continuity.
