The Client Challenge

A large healthcare system needed to reduce their security vulnerabilities. A big 4 firm had initially propsed 37 contractors at roughly $29 million over 3 years. The system also wanted to move from the Rapid7 proprietary vulnerability score to a CVSS environmental score.

AHEAD’s Solution

AHEAD evaluated the plan and identified how to reprioritize their vulnerabilities, eliminating the need for the contractors. We also built a data model in Splunk using the CVSS environmental standards.

AHEAD achieved a 71% reduction in the healthcare system’s critical vulnerabilities, and by negating the need for contractors saved the system $27 million dollars.
