Case Study: Large Healthcare Company achieves faster incident response and deeper packet-based visibility with NETSCOUT Omnis Cyber Intelligence

Omnis Cyber Intelligence Brings Value of Packet Data for Faster Incident Response

A long‑established healthcare provider with more than 100 clinics and multiple major hospitals needed stronger incident response and forensics as its NetFlow‑based security platform approached end of life. Network Operations wanted to expand an existing NETSCOUT ISNG deployment but lacked budget, while Security Operations was hesitant to replace a familiar NetFlow tool that offered limited visibility.

The organization added NETSCOUT’s Cyber Adaptor to ISNG and deployed Omnis Cyber Intelligence to leverage packet‑derived Smart Data (ASI) enriched with ATLAS threat feeds, creating a single source of packets and metadata for both teams. The packet‑based solution delivered deeper visibility into attack origin and the full attack chain, enabled faster, more actionable detection, investigation and remediation, improved NetOps–SecOps collaboration, avoided costly NetFlow upgrades, and reduced risk to patient care and sensitive health records.
