Cordell Health

38m median time-to-resolve, down from 6h 12m

"HIPAA evidence used to be a fire drill. Now its a Tuesday."

— Dr. Marcus Lowe, CIO, Cordell Health

The challenge

Cordell Health operates 12 clinical sites across three states, handling sensitive patient data under HIPAA and HITRUST frameworks. Their IT team of three was drowning in tickets, their legacy MSP could not keep up with compliance evidence requests, and audit seasons required weeks of preparation. Ransomware had hit a competitor — the board wanted proof of real protection, not promises.

The solution

Cynteri deployed endpoint protection across all 1,140 seats with Huntress EDR, implemented Entra ID conditional access policies for clinical staff, and built a continuous compliance pipeline that mapped every control to HIPAA and HITRUST requirements. A dedicated vCISO was assigned for board reporting and risk register management. The helpdesk was fully absorbed under our 24/7 follow-the-sun SOC.

The results

  • Median time-to-resolve dropped from 6h 12m to 38 minutes
  • HIPAA audit preparation reduced from 3 weeks to real-time
  • 100% uptime across all 12 clinical sites
  • IT team of 3 refocused from firefighting to strategic projects
