Case Study: Bupa Cromwell Hospital protects patient data and prevents ransomware with Elisity

How Cromwell Hospital Uses Elisity to Protect Mission-Critical Patient Data and Prevent Ransomware on its Network

Bupa Cromwell Hospital, a private healthcare facility, needed to improve its cybersecurity to protect sensitive patient data and secure numerous unmanaged medical devices that were vulnerable to ransomware. These legacy devices, such as MRI and CT scanners, could not be protected with traditional IT security controls. The hospital partnered with Elisity to gain better visibility and control over its network.

Elisity implemented its Cognitive Trust Platform to provide identity-based microsegmentation and enforce least privilege access policies. The cloud-based solution was deployed quickly without requiring hardware upgrades. This allowed Bupa to instantly identify devices and protect its clinical systems from threats, with the CISO noting it delivered immediate benefits and effective policy management.
