A Major General Hospital Chooses SkyCloud to Build a Comprehensive Cybersecurity Defense with DDoS Protection, WAF, and CDN | SkyCloud

In an era of increasingly widespread smart healthcare, information security is a fundamental pillar of healthcare quality. If a healthcare institution is targeted by an attack without comprehensive cybersecurity protection, the consequences may extend beyond disruptions to medical operations. Hackers could exploit network and system vulnerabilities to infiltrate critical medical systems and spread laterally across connected environments, potentially triggering a chain reaction that brings medical operations to a standstill and results in significant losses.

Background: Why Healthcare Institutions Need Cybersecurity Protection

Cybersecurity protection has become a regulatory requirement for healthcare institutions. In addition to the cybersecurity protection guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the Cyber Security Management Act and its subsidiary regulations impose mandatory requirements on regulated organizations, including public hospitals and certain large private hospitals designated as critical infrastructure providers. These organizations must implement information and communication system classification and protection baselines according to their assigned cybersecurity responsibility levels, such as Level A medical centers and Level B regional hospitals, to ensure the continuous operation of critical medical services and the security of sensitive data.

The Importance of Cybersecurity Planning for Healthcare Institutions

As a large private regional hospital in central Taiwan, this well-known general hospital considers the continuity of its medical services a top priority. The hospital has established a dedicated cybersecurity department and obtained multiple ISO certifications, including ISO 27001 (Information Security Management System) and ISO 27701 (Privacy Information Management System). These achievements demonstrate its commitment to bringing cybersecurity governance in line with international standards and adopting a proactive defense strategy that goes beyond minimum regulatory requirements.

However, in the face of increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks and the continued expansion of online healthcare services, the hospital still requires a robust combination of technologies to ensure uninterrupted online services and a seamless user experience.

The Hospital Strengthens Its Cybersecurity with SkyCloud

Healthcare institutions often face limited funding and budget constraints, which can make cybersecurity spending a challenge. Nevertheless, this well-known hospital recognized the importance of cybersecurity and conducted a thorough market comparison before ultimately selecting a solution from SkyCloud.

By adopting SkyCloud's DDoS protection, WAF firewall, CDN acceleration, and SmartDNS services, the hospital successfully established a comprehensive network protection architecture that balances the efficiency, security, and stability of its medical services. Testing also confirmed that SkyCloud's solutions deliver performance and quality comparable to those of leading international providers, while reducing annual service costs by 45%. This makes the solution a highly cost-effective choice for institutions operating under budget constraints.

Furthermore, as a Taiwan-based cybersecurity provider, SkyCloud offers 24/7 technical support and localized services. When unexpected incidents occur, customers can receive prompt assistance and timely issue resolution, ensuring an excellent after-sales service experience.

This implementation effectively improved the security, stability, and user experience of its medical services, enabling the hospital to confidently advance its smart healthcare initiatives and expand its online applications.
