|
| |
When Corporate Compliance Information Security started planning for WellStar Health System's HIPAA compliance program, they took the requirement to meet best practices in information security seriously. While other health organizations often tried to paper over their security vulnerabilities, WellStar implemented a sophisticated and comprehensive, technology-based security blanket to ensure that patient data stays confidential. The most active and important element in that security program is an TippingPoint intrusion prevention system that stops spyware from being installed, blocking several hundred spyware attacks each day.

At University of Washington Medicine (UW Medicine), delivering world-class patient care involves more than the expertise of its nearly 1,000 physicians. It also requires a healthy network - one safe from hackers, worms, viruses, and spyware that can compromise the performance of the organization's life-critical applications or the federally mandated confidentiality of its medical records. To safeguard its network and the patients it serves, they sought a powerful security solution that could continuously protect its high-throughput network without compromising network performance. After test-driving the TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) from 3Com, they found that it was the only solution that met their need for pervasive protection in advance of exploit.

Faronics Deep Freeze and Valdosta State University | 2006-04-13 04:37:11 |
|
| |
Originally called South Georgia State Normal College, Valdosta State University (VSU) was founded in 1906. The security threats facing VSU include malicious users, as well as harm caused by innocent clickers who are not aware of the results of their actions. VSU is also dealing with the pervasive problem of malware in the form of viruses, rootkits, spyware, and botnets. They spent about 60% of their time just handling image corruption and configuration issues within labs leading to an increase of technological demand outpacing the technological support, and helpdesk calls escalating beyond control. VSU found that Deep Freeze caused much less system performance degradation, and had more features than competing products at the time.
