There's no other industry right now under such increasing and continuous targeted attack as healthcare. Data breaches are nearly a daily occurrence*, yet unfortunately, many executives in the space don't understand cybersecurity, which often results in IT having to show measurable results for budget—even when taking preventive measures. On top of this, IT resource funding must compete with allocations for lifesaving facilities, equipment and medication, which nearly always makes security spending seem less important.

Visibility can be an effective intermediary. By monitoring all traffic within the organization, a visibility platform identifies and isolates threats from inside and outside, such as malware and unusual downloads of patient records. In cases where breaches have already occurred, visibility enables accurate reporting to comply with regulatory standards, and acts as a catalyst for rapid remediation.

Turn complexity into simplicity.

As patients engage with institutions through telemedicine and mobile devices, connected networks become more complex and risky. Adoption of modern and extensive medical systems, or Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), without prior in-depth consideration of bandwidth and security can also create vulnerabilities.

Pervasive visibility gives your medical institution complete awareness and understanding of network data and potential threats.
