Commvault offerings help hospitals recover Electronic Health Records, deliver uninterrupted patient care, and meet evolving HIPAA guidelines

LAS VEGAS, March 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- From the HIMSS25 global health conference, Commvault, a leading provider of cyber resilience and data protection solutions for the hybrid cloud, today announced that its cutting-edge cyber resilience and recovery technologies can be used to rapidly recover Electronic Health Records (EHR), including Epic and Meditech environments.

The need for this type of technology is critical. Healthcare organizations are under attack by cyber criminals. In just the first half of 2024, more than 31 million patient records were exposed in data breaches,¹ with attacks on hospitals costing the U.S. healthcare system over $21.9 billion since 2018.² Bad actors know that hospitals and medical facilities rely on and utilize highly sensitive data to provide patient care. If criminals can gain access to that data, they can hold it for ransom. It's a vicious cycle that can put patient care in jeopardy. While healthcare providers may not be able to stop attacks, they can focus on recovery and resilience.

By enabling hospitals to accelerate clean data recovery through its Cleanroom Recovery offering while also rapidly recovering cloud data, applications, and configurations via Cloud Rewind, Commvault can help healthcare organizations quickly recover from cyber incidents, maintain continuous patient care, and help comply with evolving HIPAA guidelines.

"These days, providing continuous care involves all facets of a healthcare organization, from operational processes to experienced medical staff," said Michael Carroll, Area Vice President, Healthcare, Commvault. "It starts with understanding what's truly essential for minimum viable operations. In healthcare, that means, in part, ensuring that patient records, treatment plans, and scheduling systems are back online quickly following an attack. With Commvault, medical organizations can have peace of mind and focus on what matters most – delivering great care and saving lives."

Addressing Healthcare's Cyber Resilience Crisis
Commvault's Cleanroom Recovery and Cloud Rewind deliver exceptional cyber resilience for healthcare environments by enabling:

• Clean, Air-Gapped Recovery: Cleanroom Recovery creates an on-demand production-ready failover environment in the cloud designed for ransomware-free restoration of medical records and other essential healthcare data from air-gapped backups.
• Proactive Cyber Testing: Healthcare organizations can also use Cleanroom Recovery to test their recovery plans so that if and when they are attacked, they know in advance that they can recover.
• Near-instant Cloud Rollbacks for EHR Protection: Cloud Rewind enables providers to automatically discover, protect, and quickly recover entire application environments, including critical healthcare applications like EHR systems. This can also play a key role in delivering uninterrupted patient care after a cyberattack.

Built on Microsoft Azure
Built on Azure, Commvault's Cleanroom Recovery and Cloud Rewind offer cloud-native cyber resilience for healthcare providers.

"Through our relationship with Commvault, we are delivering cloud-powered cyber resilience solutions that help enable healthcare organizations to protect patient data, minimize downtime, and maintain operational continuity," said David Houlding, Director of Global Healthcare Security & Compliance Strategy, Microsoft.

"Commvault gives us the confidence we need that in the event of a ransomware attack we can minimize the impact and maintain our operations and provide uninterrupted patient care," said Matthew Magbee, Datacenter & Platform Application Manager, Sonic Healthcare USA.

Commvault will be showcasing its cyber resilience solutions for healthcare organizations at HIMSS25 from March 3-6 in Las Vegas.
