Customer Story: Leading Healthcare Provider Reduces User Access Review Time by 50%

BACKGROUND 

A large provider of healthcare services to Medicare plan-based individuals, the client was relying on manual spreadsheets for user access reviews which posed major risks for HIPAA compliance and placed a time-consuming burden on their team. 

CHALLENGE 

The client’s manual user access review process was causing significant compliance issues due to a lack of accuracy in reporting. It was also reliant on tedious follow-ups that strained their team and created a multitude of security vulnerabilities, as they were individually tracking down those required for the UAR. They sought out a tool that could be more accurate, save time, and decrease the risk of terminated user access. 

SOLUTION 

After evaluating a number of identity governance solutions, the client decided to choose SecurEnds due to the simplicity of use, rapid deployment, and focus on user access reviews compared to the complex, expensive, and high-maintenance IAM products on the market. The advanced reporting capabilities also played a key factor in their final decision. 

Using SecurEnds’ automation platform, the security team was able to successfully move away from spreadsheets and manual follow-ups to cut labor hours by half, achieve compliance, and reduce data breach risk.
