关于客户
Sentara Healthcare is a 134-year-old healthcare system operating in Virginia and North Carolina. It serves over 950,000 community members through Sentara Health Plans and operates 12 hospitals. With nearly 30,000 employees, including over 1,300 physicians and advanced practice clinicians, Sentara provides a full range of services at more than 300 sites of care. The organization has received multiple awards for its commitment to care delivery and employee experience, including IBM Watson Health 'Top 15 Health Systems' and Forbes 'Best Employer' awards.
挑战
Sentara Healthcare faced significant cybersecurity challenges, particularly from ransomware and phishing attacks. Despite having existing security measures like IronPort and Microsoft 365, spoofing emails and spear phishing attempts were still getting through. The organization needed a more robust, cloud-based solution to enhance its email security and reduce the burden on its cybersecurity team.
解决方案
Sentara adopted Abnormal, a cloud-based, AI-driven email security solution, to augment its existing security layers. Abnormal demonstrated immediate value by identifying and blocking credential phishing attacks, vendor email compromise, and executive impersonation attacks that had bypassed other security measures. The solution's API-based approach allowed for faster detection and remediation of threats, freeing up resources for other security initiatives. Integration with Siemplify, a cloud-native SOAR solution, further automated responses to threat reports, enhancing the overall security posture.

Case Study
Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
