How a Renowned Healthcare Organization Prevents Cybercrime with INVIKTUS™ 

Summary

Faced with repeated cyber threats, a renowned healthcare organization turned to Network Critical to secure their sensitive data and improve their cybersecurity.

They deployed our zero-trust solution, INVIKTUS™ to minimize risks and strengthen network infrastructure.

The Challenge

The healthcare industry faces growing cyber risks as telemedicine, connected medical devices, and cloud-based systems expand the attack surface. Ransomware attacks have become increasingly frequent, yet many organizations lack the financial means to meet data recovery demands and implement robust security measures to protect patient data.

In light of these trends, our client sought to improve their network security and patient safety while ensuring operational continuity.

The first challenge was to secure the network from the inside. Connected medical devices such as HVACs and surveillance cameras are essential to patient care, but a single compromised device can become a gateway for cybercriminals to access confidential information.

They also needed to find a compliant data storage solution, as their former cloud platform was neither HIPAA compliant nor secure against hackers.

Our client sought an affordable, comprehensive solution to protect their network and meet regulatory requirements.

 

We needed to upgrade our network security but could not afford a very expensive solution, INVIKTUS™ provided us with a very strong security at a fraction of the cost. Now our critical servers are protected from security breaches from within the network.” - Network Manager, Hospital

The Solution

In search of a solution to these problems, the healthcare organization engaged our team of experts.

After analysing their challenges, we recommended INVIKTUS™, a zero-trust security solution.

INVIKTUS™ enforces strict access controls and ensures sensitive data remains secure by:

  • Validating all users, devices, and applications before granting network access
  • Creating a single path for authorized users while leaving the rest of the network invisible
  • Segmenting critical systems, such as data storage, to ensure unauthorized users can’t access them

These measures helped protect sensitive patient from internal and external threats.

“With Network Critical Zero Trust Security Solution, we’re able to protect our sensitive data as well as our patients’ private information.” – Chief Information Officer (CIO)

The Results

Cyber threats remain an important concern, but implementing zero-trust policies allows healthcare organizations to improve their security structure and better protect their patients.

Since deploying Network Critical’s zero-trust security solution, our client has been able to reduce risk, detect illicit ERP access attempts, and quarantine compromised devices – all while remaining within budget.
