Faced with expanding IT requirements, compliance issues and a pressing need for real-time monitoring, DentalOne Partners, one of the largest dental management service companies, selected CloudAccess' integrated security-as-a-service SIEM offering to upgrade their current security architecture.
As DentalOne Partners manages healthcare records, insurance information and other personal transactional data, ensuring HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) compliance was a paramount concern. Additionally the company required a powerful intrusion detection/prevention system to create 24/7/365 coverage. CloudAccess will be providing its SIEM and Log Management solution and service to meet those goals.
"We vetted a variety of on-premise and cloud-based options, and we found CloudAccess' overall strength, scalability, dependability, and overall ease of installation addressed these issues to meet our high standards," said David Drzewiecki, DentalOne's Vice President and Chief Information Officer. "By managing this portion of our security operation from the cloud, we will improve our ability to enforce our protection policies and prioritize proactive initiatives."
According to CloudAccess, the cloud-based SIEM/Log Management suite provides situational awareness threat assessment through a complex level of filters, rules and algorithmic correlations. The solution provides analytical context to the hundreds of millions of events, log-ons, data transactions that affect a network every month to determine if an incident is a threat requiring escalation or part of the recognized traffic pattern.
"The idea behind CloudAccess is to provide Fortune 500 enterprise-class security coverage for a fraction of the cost without sacrificing functionality," Nikkhoo said. "We are privileged to provide DentalOne Partners the scope of protection and best practice application to keep their proprietary information secure and let them sleep better at night."
As a cloud-based solution, there is no software to install or hardware to buy. Users benefit from the scalable pay-as-you-go service in which many of the functions are administered by the solution's automation functionality. SIEM and Log Management are part of an overall solution suite that also includes Identity Management, Access Management, SaaS Single Sign On and Web Single Sign On. CloudAccess is one of the only companies to provide such a comprehensive cloud-based suite.
CloudAccess provides comprehensive security-as-a-service from the cloud. CloudAccess eliminates the challenges of deploying enterprise-class security solutions including costs, risks, resources, time-to-market, and administration. With CloudAccess services there is no need to purchase hardware or software, you can start immediately, enjoy 24/ 7 support and monitoring, and choose from many support options including full administration. The CloudAccess philosophy is to make sure our customers are successful not with a promise but by trying out our services and making a well-evaluated decision.
