Case Study: Florida Medical Center secures patient data with SHI International Corp.’s Symantec DLP solution

Florida Medical Center Secures Sensitive Patient Data through Symantec DLP Solution

Florida Medical Center, a Florida regional medical center with 4,000 end users across two dozen sites, faced a serious internal information security breach involving sensitive patient health data. To address the issue and meet HIPAA requirements, the hospital worked with SHI International Corp. and evaluated several data loss prevention options, including Symantec DLP Endpoint Prevent.

SHI International Corp. implemented and supported the Symantec DLP Endpoint Prevent solution, providing consulting, architecture, deployment, and ongoing assistance. The policy-based DLP platform helped detect, control, and audit data across the enterprise while blocking sensitive information from email, cloud storage, USB devices, and printing. As a result, Florida Medical Center reduced the risk of patient data exposure, improved HIPAA compliance, and saved more than 50% in purchasing and deployment costs.
