Cybersecurity Overhaul for Medical Manufacturer Reduces Severe Incidents to Zero

About the client

A global leader in medical technology. With a growing team of 3,000 employees, the company pioneers cutting-edge solutions that enhance patient care and laboratory automation worldwide.

Challenge

Operating in a highly regulated industry, the company faced significant risks if sensitive product designs or medical data were compromised. Their diverse application portfolio, including both internal and customer-facing platforms, lacked robust security measures. Critical apps were publicly accessible, creating an expanded attack surface with insufficient visibility. Given strict industry regulations and high stakes for patient safety, the company needed a thorough overhaul to protect data, ensure compliance, and bolster resilience.

Solution

Under a specialized mandate, Clue was tasked with designing and deploying a robust security framework tailored to the company’s diverse application needs. Key measures included:

  • Comprehensive application review
    Clue conducted an in-depth analysis of 30 critical apps, mapping data flows and pinpointing vulnerabilities.

  • Integration with Web Application Firewall (WAF)
    Customized security policies and micro-segmentation enabled real-time protection, mitigating hidden weaknesses and ensuring strict compliance standards.

  • AI & vulnerability management
    Automated threat detection and continuous monitoring provided granular oversight, reducing response times and maintaining proactive risk management.

  • Tailored deployment & collaboration
    By working closely with the client’s large IT department and product design engineers, Clue aligned security protocols without interrupting vital production processes.

“Clue has proven to be a flexible and creative service provider for security solutions in the OT environment. Their specialization combined with the flexibility and willingness to develop and implement our requirements in detail is a winning combination for the implementation of OT security projects.”

Result

  • Reduced attack surface & zero critical incidents
    By integrating 30 critical applications into a fortified WAF environment, hidden vulnerabilities were neutralized, resulting in zero severe security incidents post-implementation.

  • Full regulatory compliance & future-ready security
    Comprehensive safeguards met and exceeded strict medical industry standards, instilling confidence among regulatory bodies, partners, and end-users.

  • Heightened transparency & rapid threat response
    Real-time dashboards and proactive risk assessments gave the client unprecedented visibility into potential threats, enabling swift, decisive action whenever anomalies arose.

  • Optimized operations & long-term resilience
    Aligned processes between engineering and IT minimized downtime, allowing the company to focus on innovation in medical device production—securely and without disruption.
