Cybersecurity for Healthcare
Patient data, connected medical devices, and HIPAA obligations mean healthcare providers need security that doesn't slow down clinical operations.
Key challenges
- Patient data breaches carry both HIPAA liability and direct harm to patients — a compromised EHR isn't just a compliance failure, it can disrupt actual clinical care.
- Connected medical devices (infusion pumps, imaging systems, remote monitoring) often run outdated firmware that can't be patched on the same cycle as standard IT.
- Clinical staff need fast, frictionless system access in emergencies, which means security controls have to work with clinical workflows, not against them.
