How a Large University Medical Center Scanned 50,000+ Mailboxes for PHI
For healthcare organizations, Protected Health Information (PHI) does not stay neatly contained in one system. It spreads across email, attachments, internal communications, and external exchanges, making it difficult to understand where sensitive data lives and how much risk exists.
This case study highlights how a large university medical center conducted a baseline scan across more than 50,000 mailboxes and over 500 TB of data to identify PHI in mailboxes, attachments, inbound emails, and communications involving external senders. The result is a clear picture of just how large the PHI exposure challenge can become in complex healthcare environments.

- How a large healthcare organization approached email scanning for PHI
- The scale of sensitive data exposure across emails and attachments
- What baseline discovery can reveal about PHI in inbound and external communications
- How Spirion SDP supported large-scale scanning, visibility and remediation efforts
