Dental Clinic Gets Affordable
Ransomware Protection with StoneFly
Challenges
As a medical service provider, the dental clinic is expected to
store and protect confidential information about their clients
such as medical records, and Personally Identifiable
Information (PII) – which also subjects them to data
protection regulations such as HIPAA. In order to provide
reliable and trustworthy services to their clients, the dental
clinic needed solution that provided the needed storage
capacity with the ability to protect it from malicious actors
such as ransomware attacks and hackers.
In addition to storage and data protection, as a medical
service provider, the dental clinic also needed a way to
archive and store the patient information for years – and do
it affordably.

Story
Challenges
The dental clinic was concerned
about the increasing ransomware
attacks on healthcare service
providers and wanted a data
protection solution that helped
protect confidential patient data
from ransomware and hackers -
and helped with HIPAA
compliance.
Furthermore, due to the small-scale of their operations, the
clinic had a limited budget and were looking for a
consolidated solution that could be managed without in-
depth technical knowledge.
“We needed an IT solution that could store and potentially
archive large volumes of patient information for longer
periods of time, protect it from ransomware, hackers, and
virus, scale when we needed it to – and do all of that within
our budget”, said Tony, the IT manager for the dental clinic.

Solution
After reviewing the requirements of the dental clinic,
StoneFly experts suggested the StoneFly miniBackup™ V-
series appliance.
The miniBackup is an affordable, plug and play backup
and Disaster Recovery (DR) appliance pre-configured with
the enterprise Veeam backup software. It offers
customizable terabytes of on-premises storage and
integrated cloud storage for offsite data archiving and
retention.
In addition to the ability to store terabytes of data on-
premises on high performance fault-tolerant enterprise
storage drives and virtually unlimited data in the cloud of
their choice including Azure, AWS, and StoneFly Private
cloud.
Furthermore, the dental clinic can expand the on-premises
storage capacity by adding JBODs – which also allows
them to set up round robin backups adding an extra data
protection layer to the system.
“StoneFly miniBackup was the all-in-one affordable solution
we were looking for. With this solution, we can store our
patient data, backup all our devices, and archive in the
cloud – and manage it all easily”, said Tony.
