Case Study: Large Healthcare Company achieves stronger patient-data protection, HIPAA compliance and operational continuity with SimSpace

Ensuring Compliance and Continuity A Healthcare Cybersecurity Success Story with SimSpace

Large Healthcare Company, a U.S.-based institution with 10,000+ employees, faced escalating cyber threats to patient data and clinical operations, compounded by inadequate incident response procedures, growing IoT vulnerabilities, and stringent regulatory requirements like HIPAA and HITECH. To address these challenges they engaged SimSpace and adopted the SimSpace Platform to strengthen protection of Protected Health Information (PHI), improve team readiness, and meet compliance obligations.

SimSpace delivered a cyber range solution that enabled realistic, real-time drills, stress testing of controls, and validation of incident containment in an operational model, improving the security team’s response to sophisticated attacks and minimizing service disruptions. Using the SimSpace Platform, the organization achieved measurable gains cited by SimSpace customers—30% operational cost savings, 40% fewer configuration/patch-related breaches, 45% improvement in attack defense, and a 48% faster time to detect breaches—while producing compliance-ready reporting for audits and regulatory reviews.
