Case Study: Massena Hospital achieves HIPAA-compliant email protection with Virtru

Massena Hospital protects 260 Gmail users with Virtru

Massena Hospital, a healthcare provider, needed a simple and reliable solution to encrypt emails containing sensitive patient information to meet strict HIPAA compliance mandates. Their previous encryption tool was difficult for both internal staff and external partners to use, creating operational hurdles. They turned to the vendor Virtru for its email protection service.

Virtru implemented an easy-to-use email encryption solution for Gmail that could be toggled on or off for individual messages as needed. This provided the flexibility required for their 260 users across various departments. The solution ensured that external partners could also easily read and securely reply to encrypted messages without complex setups. As a result, Massena Hospital achieved robust HIPAA compliance, strengthened its data protection processes, and gained a solution they could confidently trust and stand behind.
