How a Georgia Based Healthcare Organization Partnered with Port53 to Secure Their Future
When a phone call from a cyber insurance company alerted the CIO of a Georgia-based healthcare organization on a quiet weekend, panic quickly set in. The message was clear: their login credentials were spotted for sale on the darkweb, and a cyber attack was imminent. To make matters worse, a district FBI agent confirmed the threat.
Suddenly, the IT department found itself thrust into emergency mode. The organization was immediately placed into a Digital Forensics and Incident Response process by their insurer. While the investigation ultimately revealed no breach, the scare made one thing crystal clear: it was time to take cybersecurity more seriously.In the wake of the incident, the team began exploring Extended Detection and Response(XDR) solutions. Their criteria were strict: a provider with strong market credibility, qualified and responsive staff, SOC 2 Type 2 certification, and a platform that could work seamlessly with their hybrid IT environment.Port53 stood out from the beginning. Over several rounds of technical demos, the Port53 team not only demonstrated deep technical understanding but showed up prepared: asking the right questions, answering with clarity, and mapping solutions to the organization’s real-world challenges.
Once the contract was signed, the implementation of Cisco XDR was smooth and timely. Port53’s engineering leads worked closely with the IT team to configure and tune the system for their specific needs. Responses to questions were prompt and professional, and support was never far away.Shortly after completing the deployment, thePort53 team recommended another enhancement,Cisco Email Threat Defense, to strengthen their protection against phishing and business email compromise. That implementation further improved the organization’s overall security posture and provided an added layer of reassurance
For this Georgia-based healthcare provider, Port53has become more than a vendor; they’re an extension of the team. From early conversations to go-live and beyond, Port53 has remained a trusted partner in helping them navigate a rapidly changing cyber landscape. “Having experienced how Port53 operates from pre-sales demonstration to implementation, I would strongly recommendPort53 to any other healthcare providers for their outsourced cybersecurity needs.”Peace of mind. Operational focus. Trusted support.That’s the Port53 difference.
