Case Study: a Regional Hospital System achieves 4-hour ransomware recovery with StoneFly DR365V

Regional Hospital System recovers from ransomware in 4 hours with StoneFly

The customer, a US regional hospital system, faced a significant challenge as their Veeam backup repository was on the same network as their production systems, leaving them vulnerable to a ransomware attack that could simultaneously encrypt both. They also needed to meet HIPAA compliance requirements for a documented recovery capability. To solve this, they deployed the StoneFly DR365V Veeam Ready Air-Gapped and Immutable Backup & DR Appliance.

StoneFly's solution provided an air-gapped vault that was logically isolated from the production network. Following a real ransomware attack, the hospital was able to achieve a full recovery of their clinical systems in under four hours with zero data loss and without paying a ransom. The solution also preserved an intact HIPAA chain-of-custody audit trail, validating the effectiveness of the air-gapped architecture.
