University of Washington Medicine Thwarts 803,000 Zotob Attacks in Week-Long Attack at World-Renown Medical Center
Overview At University of Washington Medicine (UW Medicine), delivering world-class patient care involves more than the expertise of its nearly 1,000 physicians. It also requires a healthy network - one safe from hackers, worms, viruses, and spyware that can compromise the performance of the organization's life-critical applications or the federally mandated confidentiality of its medical records. To safeguard its network and the patients it serves, they sought a powerful security solution that could continuously protect its high-throughput network without compromising network performance. After test-driving the TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) from 3Com, they found that it was the only solution that met their need for pervasive protection in advance of exploit.
