Bausch Health is a global medical manufacturing organisation with numerous acquired entities, roughly 150 sites and around 15,000 employees across sales, marketing and manufacturing roles.
Bausch Health standardised firewall protection across a global healthcare and manufacturing estate.
Bausch Health needed to modernise a legacy firewall estate across a global healthcare and manufacturing environment. Tesrex centred the rollout on Cisco Firepower and next-generation firewalls, tuned prevention controls and created a consistent policy hierarchy across more than 150 sites.


The legacy firewall estate needed higher throughput, next-generation threat prevention and consistent management across many global locations without leaving gaps in protection.
What Tesrex changed.
Tesrex treated the firewall deployment as a global control problem: consistent policy, tuned prevention, better throughput and faster evidence for security decisions.
- Designed the firewall modernisation around Cisco Firepower and Cisco Next-Generation Firewalls.
- Tuned IPS, anti-malware and URL filtering to fit the Bausch Health environment.
- Rolled the deployment across global locations with consistent firewall management as a core requirement.
- Implemented a policy hierarchy so protection and control were not handled differently from site to site.
- Kept visibility and decision speed in scope, so teams were not left manually checking logs weeks after events.
What changed for the customer.
Practical customer outcomes, kept close to the original work.
Customer proof from the estates Tesrex works inside.
Throughput capability increased across the modernised firewall estate.
The customer gained stronger control through the Cisco Firepower management console.
Threat visibility improved, with real-time analytics helping teams make decisions when anomalies were flagged.
What this proves now.
AI readiness in regulated estates still needs reliable control boundaries and policy evidence. This work shows Tesrex can strengthen the platform record teams need before automated work can be trusted.
