X-ray & IT Danmark Secures Dentists across Denmark from Cyberattacks

The dental industry in Denmark is particularly vulnerable to cyberattacks and phishing emails are commonplace. Despite educating their customers about phishing and the growing risk of cyberattacks, the dentists they are working with typically don’t give a lot of thought to cybersecurity. With many of their customers choosing to work remotely, sometimes on home PCs and often with firewalls and Antivirus software that are not up to date, it was just too easy for one user to click a bad link and potentially destroy an entire network in around 15 minutes. They needed to find a solution that would mitigate the risk of increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks whilst still providing the required flexibility for their customers.

They were introduced to BlackFog by alocal distributor in Denmark. Aware that conventional Antivirus solutions weren’t providing enough protection against advanced threats, particularly with many attacks being Fileless, they knew they needed to find a better solution. They were interested in the real- time protection and 12 layers of defense against ransomware, malware, spyware and unauthorized data collection and profiling that BlackFog provided.

“We felt that BlackFog would not only fill the gap that firewalls and Antivirus left behind but also that our customers would really appreciate the fact that their sensitive patient data would be secured and protected, and the on-device approach would ensure that what was on their device would stay on their device.” Commented, Bo Trusbak, CEO and Chief Engineer at X-ray & IT Danmark.

After learning more about BlackFog, they tested and installed the product over a two- week period. With the testing team being very knowledgeable about IT security, it didn’t take them long to realize that the product was an ideal fit for them, and it quickly became an integral part of their managed security solution.

“The results we saw during testing were better than we expected, we always knew cyberthreats were an issue in our environment, but we didn’t realize to what extent until we installed BlackFog. Seeing the dashboard for the first time was quite concerning.” Commented, Bo. “All customers who have our managed security service now have BlackFog installed and since we deployed it, we see almost nothing in the way of cyber threats.”
