Case Study: US-Based Healthcare Services and Product Provider reduces malware infections with CylancePROTECT

US-Based Healthcare Services and Product Provider - Customer Case Study

A US-Based Healthcare Services and Product Provider operated more than 400 locations, supported 1.3 million patients, and needed to reduce malware outbreaks while protecting patient records, medical device vulnerabilities, and sensitive research and development information. The company also had to prevent theft of personally identifiable information and maintain HIPAA compliance. It turned to Cylance after repeatedly dealing with malware despite existing security tools.

Cylance deployed CylancePROTECT® to 10,000 endpoints, along with a Compromise Assessment service and a Penetration Test for medical devices and supporting infrastructure. After a 250-endpoint proof of concept, the company moved to a full purchase in two weeks and later removed Symantec antivirus and HIPS products from over 9,000 endpoints. Cylance detected and blocked three types of custom malware and hundreds of potentially unwanted programs, and the company ended the engagement with zero malware or PUP infections.
