Case Studies

Healthcare Sector and Epic Integration

One of North America's largest research-intensive healthcare providers undertook the implementation of Epic, an electronic health record management solution. As one of the busiest healthcare providers in North America, the provider employs a large number of professionals, care providers, and support staff. The hospital retained KeyData for the following:

to conduct a current state assessment of its IAM and PAM environment
to develop an IAM/PAM target state architecture along with a Strategy and Roadmap
to develop an access management policy, control standards
to design improved target state processes for IAM and PAM
to implement the IAM and PAM Roadmap along with the supporting technologies

Utility Sector and NERC CIP

The challenge faced by the client was reliance on excessive manual processes for NERC CIP compliance. The processes were complex, inefficient, prone to error, lacked consistent audit trails and were not well understood. With the introduction of NERC CIP v5, the major objectives were as follows:

Address NERC CIP v5 compliance requirements for over 250 BES Cyber Systems and BES Cyber Assets;
Reduce operational risks to the environment;
Reduce reliance on manual processes for access governance and access administration;
Improve role management capability for the BES Cyber Systems
