CASE STUDY

• BUSINESS NEED
• Welsh Feliciana Parish Hospital was using a
  password-protected healthcare solution. The
  password-based system had been introduced to
  ensure that patient data remained secure from any
  kind of unauthorized access.
• Initially the system seemed to work well.
  However, as the days progressed, the hospital
  management started noticing incidents of the
  hospital staff would tend to forget or misplace
  their passwords, and sharing their access
  credentials with their colleagues.
• Such laxities in securing patient data were duly
  noticed by the hospital management.
