Case Study: Leading US Healthcare Organization achieves endpoint protection against advanced attacks with CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager

Leading US Healthcare Organization Protects Endpoints Against Advanced Attacks with CyberArk

A major U.S. research hospital that also serves as an educational institution faced a rising number of attacks across an environment of nearly 20,000 desktops, laptops and mobile devices. Endpoints were often shared and physically exposed, and many users had unnecessary administrative rights, creating a large, high-risk attack surface for sensitive patient records.

The organization deployed CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager with CyberArk consulting services in a phased rollout across admin workstations, laptops and shared clinical computers. The solution removed excessive local admin rights while giving clinicians granular, safe ways to perform necessary tasks, rolled out smoothly with minimal user disruption, and strengthened protection of patient data while preserving day-to-day access — with server hardening planned as the next phase.
