Case Study: Buurtzorg Nederland secures 8,000 iPads and achieves 100% mobile threat remediation with Lookout

Buurtzorg protects healthcare data by securing 8K iPads

Buurtzorg Nederland, a Dutch home health care organization known for its self-governing nurse teams, faced a security challenge: nurses use 8,000 company-owned iPads (managed with MobileIron) on public Wi‑Fi and need freedom to install apps while protecting sensitive patient data and complying with Dutch privacy law. To avoid restrictive app blacklists and preserve productivity, Buurtzorg turned to Lookout and its Lookout Mobile Endpoint Security solution.

Lookout was deployed to all 8,000 iPads (pushed via MobileIron or one‑click enrollment), quickly detecting man‑in‑the‑middle attacks and high‑risk sideloaded apps within the first 30 days. With Lookout, non‑technical users achieved 100% mobile threat remediation (MITM issues remediated in under eight minutes on average; sideloaded apps in about seven hours), delivering improved productivity for remote nurses, full visibility into mobile threats, and compliance with Dutch privacy requirements.
