40 Healthcare Organizations Already Accepted into Program as Holiday Weekend Data Breach Risks Escalate
Torrance, CA – May 15, 2025 – Celerium today announced the launch of its Data Breach Defense Program for the U.S. healthcare industry, anchored by the company’s breakthrough solution, Data Breach Defender™.
The launch comes as holiday weekends, like Memorial Day and Thanksgiving, become prime opportunities for data breach attacks targeting healthcare systems. Historically, healthcare organizations face increased breach risk during these periods due to reduced IT staffing and delayed response times. Public disclosures after long weekends often reveal that attackers had gained access days earlier.
To help combat these threats, Celerium is offering no-cost access to Data Breach Defender™ through the end of 2025. Already, 40 hospitals and healthcare organizations have been accepted into the program, with many reporting rapid deployment and immediate visibility into active threats.
Proven Technology. Immediate Results.
Data Breach Defender™ is a cloud-based cyber defense solution that delivers real-time, automated protection through prevention, detection, and containment. Built on cybersecurity technology developed for the U.S. Department of Defense, the platform is designed to surface early-stage breach activity before damage is done, especially during off-hours and holiday periods.
Implementation takes about 30 minutes and no new hardware or software needs to be installed or maintained. Threat blocking is re-optimized every 15 minutes.
"We deployed Celerium’s Data Breach Defender solution in just minutes, and the results were immediate and dramatic. The platform quickly delivered visibility into threats we hadn't previously detected, providing enterprise-grade protection without disrupting operations,” said the CIO of Reeves Regional Health, recognized as one of the Top 100 Critical Access Hospitals in the U.S.
“I was amazed by the results immediately after completing the 30-minute implementation of Data Breach Defender,” said the Director of IT at Creative Care in Arizona. “I could instantly see detailed threat activity targeting our organization. The visibility into potential threats prompted me to enable automated blocking of the highest-risk activity, powered by Celerium. The solution is simple, actionable, and effective.”
