Case Study: Saluda Nursing & Rehab Center achieves seamless HIPAA‑compliant encrypted email and robust anti‑phishing protection with Paubox Email Suite

Saluda Nursing uses Paubox Email Suite Premium to send HIPAA compliant email, block cyberattacks, and keep sensitive data from being emailed by mistake

Saluda Nursing & Rehab Center, a 176‑bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility in Saluda County, SC, faced a critical need to secure email communications and meet HIPAA requirements after staff were using personal email and unencrypted systems. To address potential PHI exposure and rising email phishing threats, the center selected Paubox and its Paubox Email Suite Premium to provide compliant, seamless email encryption and security.

Paubox implemented Email Suite Premium (with ExecProtect inbound security and email DLP), integrated quickly after signing a BAA, and encrypted outbound mail by default without changing user workflows. In the past 12 months Paubox encrypted 27,064 emails and blocked 627 spam messages, improving security posture, reducing risk of PHI exposure, and giving Saluda confidence in passing state HIPAA audits.
