Case Study: LeanTaaS achieves real-time cloud API protection and HIPAA compliance with Fastly Next-Gen WAF

Data-driven Defense Enables LeanTaaS to Provide Better Healthcare Experiences

LeanTaaS, a healthcare software company that uses data analytics to improve hospital efficiency, faced the challenge of securing its cloud-based APIs against evolving threats in real time while meeting HIPAA compliance. They needed a solution that went beyond traditional firewalls and could integrate seamlessly with their fast-paced development cycles. This led them to the Fastly Next-Gen WAF service from Signal Sciences.

The solution from Fastly Next-Gen WAF provided deep visibility and active defense, blocking both known and zero-day attacks. It was deployed across LeanTaaS's entire AWS infrastructure in under 40 minutes and integrated directly into their CI/CD pipeline. The results included a trusted security posture that did not slow development, proactive threat blocking that bolstered compliance, and valuable telemetry that helped the team prioritize their security efforts effectively.
