How a healthcare center secured 58 regional clinics and accelerated diagnostic data flow
In healthcare, clinical downtime is simply not an option. Yet, interconnecting 58 regional clinics to primary data centers using legacy IPsec tunnels created severe latency bottlenecks, slowing down the transmission of heavy X-rays and degrading critical VoIP communications.
This executive success story reveals how a prominent U.S. healthcare organization eliminated network delays, secured 58 greenfield environments without local firewalls, and guaranteed 100% high availability, all while fully empowering a lean 4-person IT team.
Zero delays in diagnostic data transfer and continuous availability
Operating remote medical sites relying solely on basic switches and routers leaves individual locations without local perimeter protection and compromises the performance of critical patient care services.
This document details the deployment of a unified architecture using PAN-OS SD-WAN and Next-Generation Firewalls across 2 primary hubs and 58 regional clinics. Guided by Netdata as a hands-on engineering co-pilot, the organization built perimeter policies from the ground up, designed custom clinical performance profiles for heavy diagnostic imaging, and rigorously tested automated failover mechanisms to guarantee uninterrupted service during ISP outages.
