Case Study: Good Samaritan Hospital achieves a secure, efficient Active Directory transition and HIPAA compliance with NetIQ solutions

Good Samaritan Hospital - Customer Case Study

Good Samaritan Hospital needed to migrate 1,000 users and 100 Windows servers to Microsoft Active Directory while maintaining HIPAA compliance, updating permissions, moving passwords, and keeping clinical resources available with minimal disruption. The IT team also required effective day-to-day management of the new environment to protect patient data and sustain operations.

NetIQ solutions—Directory and Resource Administrator, Group Policy Administrator, and Change Guardian—integrated with Microsoft tools to enable a smooth transition and secure, delegated administration. The hospital automated repetitive user tasks, reduced administrative costs, increased directory security, and expanded safe use of Group Policy Objects from two to more than twenty-five, while gaining better visibility and compliance control.
