Case Study: NHS Blood and Transplant achieves total endpoint protection and UK government data compliance with Check Point Software's Endpoint Security

NHS Blood and Transplant Deploys Check Point Endpoint Security for Total Protection of Sensitive Information

NHS Blood and Transplant, part of the NHS that collects and processes about 2.1 million donations a year, needed to strengthen protection of confidential patient and research data across 900 laptops and 500 desktops to meet new UK government data-security directives. Although they already used Check Point Integrity for endpoint protection, they required full-disk encryption, granular port control and an easy-to-manage solution that would not burden users or IT staff.

They deployed Check Point Endpoint Security—a single-agent platform providing full-disk encryption, USB/port protection, antivirus and a VPN for secure remote access—managed centrally from one console. The rollout was seamless and transparent to users: staff were issued encrypted USB drives while other removable media were blocked, administrators gained real-time reporting and policy control, and the organization achieved stronger data protection, regulatory compliance, reduced IT support overhead and improved secure remote working.
