Health technology, on AWS
Warmer: A startup got a security team, and a live threat was closed within two hours.
2 hours
from discovering a threat to mitigating it
Biweekly
compliance reports and recommendations
No surprises
in cost, which mattered to a startup
The problem
Warmer connects people with experts who share their lived experience. It is not bound by HIPAA, but treats user data as if it were. It needed stronger security to keep growing and could not justify a full-time security officer.
The scope
Security and compliance for a growing AWS environment, plus infrastructure guidance while the team changed vendors.
What we did
- Scanned the AWS environment and brought it into compliance quickly.
- Delivers biweekly compliance reports and recommendations.
- Gives the team a summary of the five HIPAA domains it is measured against, in Cloudticity Oxygen.
- Guided major infrastructure changes while Warmer was between vendors and without an infrastructure architect.
The result
When a serious threat hit Warmer's new website, Cloudticity engaged a rapid response team and helped mitigate it within two hours of discovery.
“It's kind of like having an on demand cybersecurity team, which, when you don't have those internal resources, is really, really important.”
