Case Study: Bancroft improves HIPAA-compliant email security and control with Virtru

Bancroft protects 7,000 emails with Virtru

Bancroft, a New Jersey-based non-profit healthcare organization serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, needed a more reliable and easier-to-use email encryption solution to protect sensitive patient information and ensure HIPAA compliance. Their legacy system, Zix, provided inadequate control and a clunky experience for recipients, prompting them to seek a new vendor. Bancroft chose to implement Virtru for Gmail to gain better security controls and ensure the privacy of shared medical data.

By deploying Virtru, Bancroft's administration team gained hands-on control over their encrypted communications, including the ability to easily revoke emails sent in error and track message security. The solution was seamlessly rolled out to 2,200 users, who found it straightforward to use within Gmail. In the first few months, Virtru effortlessly protected over 7,000 emails, providing the organization with newfound confidence in its compliance and data security.
