When a regional attack hit close to home, this team responded in hours, not weeks

When you’re running cybersecurity in a busy hospital, you don’t have the luxury of long response times. This video features how Dayton Children’s cybersecurity team dealt with an emerging social engineering attack making the rounds in regional hospitals, and explains how the Fable platform helped them move quickly when they learned a nearby hospital had been hit—and been ransomed as a result. With the threat suddenly close to home, they needed to brief their entire workforce, quickly, accurately, and in a way people would actually pay attention to.

Instead of sending generic training, the Dayton Children’s team deployed tailored guidance specific to the attackers’ tactics, including a custom vishing-prevention video just for their help desk. The result was rapid, targeted communication delivered at scale—something they had not been able to do easily with their legacy platform.

Beyond incident response, the team shares how Fable now lightens their day-to-day workload by continuously analyzing risky user behavior and surfacing issues before they turn into problems. With a highly-competent staff, but one that’s never big enough for the growing demands, having automated, user-level risk insights helps the team stay ahead without losing precious time to manual review.

In the video, the team also highlights one of the biggest benefits of using Fable: the ability to prioritize remediation based on who was affected. A phish against a cafeteria worker is not the same as one against a nurse with an inbox full of protected health information. By giving them instant visibility into each employee’s data access and behavioral risk, Fable helps the team respond smarter and protect the organization more effectively. In their words: every company needs something like this—especially now.
