The county hospital is one of the key healthcare organizations in the region, providing acute, specialized, and aftercare for tens of thousands of patients annually. It operates an extensive IT infrastructure including clinical information systems, laboratory and diagnostic applications, operational and administrative systems, as well as support for networked medical devices.
The hospital manages more than two thousand terminal facilities — from medical staff stations, to servers supporting continuous operation, to mobile devices used in the field. The operation is characterized by high demands on availability, fast response and safe handling of sensitive data. Given the critical nature of the services provided, it is essential to provide a stable, secure and well-monitored IT environment that minimises operational risks and supports the smooth running of the hospital.
The existing antivirus system failed to cover current security threats and did not provide sufficient visibility over what was happening at the endpoints. It lacked the ability to evaluate process behavior, detect advanced attacks without signatures, and respond quickly in real time. The hospital needed a solution that would protect heterogeneous environments (Windows, macOS, Linux), cover over 1,600 stations and hundreds of servers, while maintaining the smooth operation of health systems.
A modern, next-generation EDR solution has been implemented, combining preventive protection, detection and automated response within a single end-agent. The solution works on the principle of behavior analysis and can identify threats even without signatures or reputation databases. Included is an autonomous reaction mechanism that, when anomalies are detected, is able to stop malicious processes, isolate the device from the network or restore its state.
The established platform provides central management, telemetry overview, forensic records and the possibility of remote interventions. Integration includes support for SSO, multi-factor authentication, and secure communication using modern encryption protocols.
The hospital gained a significantly higher level of visibility over the entire environment and the ability to detect and stop incidents in real time. Thanks to the automated response, the time between detection and remediation has been reduced, minimizing the impact on the operation of clinical systems. Security policy management has become unified across operating systems, and operations have become more predictable and more auditable.
“Deployed EDR gives us the ability to detect, analyze and address threats in real time, instead of backtracking incidents. Automated responses minimize the impact on operations and significantly reduce response times, while the security team has a continuous and understandable overview of what is happening at the end stations. “

After the successful implementation of the project, we continue to cooperate in the form of technical support.
