Regional Hospital System Strengthens Ransomware Recovery with StoneFly DR365V

Image
In the healthcare sector, uninterrupted access to patient data and clinical applications is critical. A US regional hospital system operating a 1,200-bed acute care facility enhanced its data protection strategy by deploying StoneFly’s DR365V , adding an air-gapped and immutable vault layer to its existing Veeam infrastructure.

This architecture left backup data vulnerable to ransomware attacks that could spread across the production network and compromise recovery resources. To address this risk, the hospital implemented the StoneFly DR365V , a Veeam Ready backup and disaster recovery appliance featuring patented Air-Gapped Vault® technology , immutable WORM storage, and integrated threat detection.
