Health Care
The Opportunity
Health care organizations such as insurance providers, care groups and hospitals are mandated by law to keep their corporate and customer assets protected from growing security threats, primarily due to HIPAA but also Sarbanes-Oxley and others, depending on their circumstances. The FBI estimates that 1% of security breaches are successful. In one case, a major health care provider reported 140,000 alerts generated and 12,000 deemed critical which translates to more breaches, not to mentions alerts, than their staff could possibly handle.
The BT Solution
BT's Managed Security Monitoring provides Health Care providers with both the protection needed to mitigate the threat of breaches in violation of HIPAA and other privacy laws but the reporting back needed to ensure audits are satisfied. In one case, a BT managed health insurance provider terminated an employee and BT provided the evidence necessary to show that the employee had breached the network upon termination. Avoiding notification for breach with this audit data saved considerable time and money for the customer.
BT provides highly trained experts and sophisticated surveillance technology to stay ahead of today's software vulnerabilities, malicious insiders, and attackers from the outside. These Managed Security Services include:
Managed Security Monitoring - 24x7x365 protection of over 500 enterprise data networks worldwide by trained security analysts located in Security Operations Centers on call to alert customers to potential threats and real time attacks as they happen.
