St. Luke’s University Health Network Cybersecurity Strategy

This case study outlines the cybersecurity strategy implemented by St. Luke’s University Health Network, a healthcare provider with 20,000 employees. The organization faced significant challenges related to asset compliance, security, and data protection, particularly due to the integration of numerous medical devices and the high volume of attempted ransomware attacks. To address these issues, St. Luke’s adopted the Forescout Platform alongside Microsoft security solutions, streamlining its risk management tools from 38 vendors to 8. This integration has enabled the network to achieve comprehensive asset intelligence, providing visibility into device compliance and behavior. The case study details how St. Luke’s has improved its security posture, reduced technology sprawl, and fostered a culture of security awareness among its staff. The hospital network aims to achieve HITRUST certification, demonstrating its commitment to robust cybersecurity measures and the implementation of a Zero Trust framework.
