CUSTOMER SUCCESS STORY

LEADING HOSPITAL’S JOURNEY TO ENTERPRISE DATA MINIMIZATION AND COST SAVINGS

Customer Challenges

Enterprise storage growing exponentially up to 70% in 2020 with a 10-year average annual growth of about 55%

Amid the coronavirus pandemic, the Hospital was also facing IT budget reductions with the only options for cost reductions were either:

  • Reduce critical IT talent,
  • Reduce critical IT services, or
  • Delay strategic technology initiatives

VP of Infrastructure was seeking a sustainable, automated solution to identify what data could be defensibly disposed of and what data should be retained

“This is new to us as we never delete anything!”

— Hospital’s VP of Infrastructure

WHY NVISIONx?

NVISIONx is a data risk intelligence company that solves the challenges as to why business leaders retain more data than they should which impairs productivity, increases their cyber risks, expands their compliance scope and wastes $Ms every year.

Our Nx Platform creates data inventories of all your data. It then applies business use case analytics to identify useless data that may be over-replicated, abandoned or beyond their retention needs and could be defensibly disposed.

STORAGE MAY BE CHEAP TO BUY, BUT NOT CHEAP TO OWN

Nx protects every businesses’ most valuable data. This is what we call the Crown Jewels. Since we create complete data inventories of all your data, we also can detect useless data. This is what we call the Junk.

Nx provides an actionable, global view to business, privacy and cybersecurity professionals to make better informed decisions on what data to protect and what to purge.

We enable you to make data-driven decisions to optimize controls for protecting critical data while also defensibly purging files that no longer have business value, incur business risks, or impair compliance and cost you millions in avoidable storage costs.

By keeping useful data and purging useless data, critical business functions become more efficient while also avoiding excessive storage costs.

NVISIONx’S PERSPECTIVE

ONCE DATA IS ANALYZED, USELESS DATA CAN BE DEFENSIBLY PURGED

…up to 80% of corporate data no longer has business value*
*IDC Study: Digital Universe in 2020

ONCE DATA IS ANALYZED, USELESS DATA CAN BE DEFENSIBLY PURGED. DETERMINE IF YOU MAY BE A DATA HOARDER…

Do you save everything “just in case”?
Do you really know where all your sensitive data is stored across the enterprise?
Do you struggle to find data in a timely manner?
Are you able to process customers’ privacy rights requests quickly and completely in minutes?
Are you likely spending $Ms to keep and protect expired and potentially toxic data?

HOW Nx HELPED LEADING HOSPITAL WITH DATA MINIMIZATION AND COST SAVINGS

  • Scanned and analyzed 675TB of data with 225M files in 2 weeks

  • Identified 302TB of data for deletion

    • 195TB of redundant or abandoned data that has not been accessed in over a year
    • 107TB of high definition medical and marketing media that were beyond their retention periods
  • Reduced YoY storage consumption rate projections from about 55% to about 23%

  • Initial cost avoidance of $4.4M through extended use of storage filers for an additional 2 years

  • Projected cost savings of $5.9M over next 5 years

“Coincidentally, our storage vendor was trying to sell us more storage, but with the Nx Platform, we can delay that acquisition for at least 18 months.”

— Hospital’s VP of Infrastructure

“A Children’s Hospital is keeping decades old patient records of kids who are now grandparents. They were faced with unplanned budget cuts and never considered the option of defensibly disposing of surplus data. Our Nx Platform gave them a better choice of getting rid of expensive and toxic junk data and continue to invest in critical healthcare functions.”

— Glen Day, NVISIONx CEO
