Case Study: WellCare achieves secure API sharing and real-time access with Forum Systems Forum Sentry

WellCare Leverages Forum Sentry to Securely Share APIs

WellCare, a Fortune 500 health plan provider, sought to securely share its APIs to give members, internal users, and third-party partners real-time access to critical healthcare data while ensuring compliance with HIPAA regulations. Their challenge was to enable this rapid, secure data exchange without compromising security or causing major network disruption. They selected Forum Systems and its Forum Sentry API Gateway as their solution.

By implementing Forum Sentry, WellCare gained a purpose-built security device that provided authentication, authorization, and seamless integration. The solution enabled secure access via REST and SOAP APIs, facilitated B2B integrations, and secured a mobile app, all while dramatically reducing the need for manual coding. Forum Systems' solution gave the WellCare team the confidence to securely expose services to the open internet, knowing the data was protected.
