Healthcare
Protect patient data and keep care running
In healthcare, an outage is not an inconvenience; it delays treatment. We secure electronic health records, connected medical devices and clinical networks, align your program to HIPAA and HITRUST expectations, and plan recovery so clinicians can keep working when systems are under attack.
Sector pressures
What makes IT different here
Ransomware aimed at care delivery
Attackers know hospitals and clinics cannot afford downtime. Encrypted records and diverted patients make recovery speed a patient-safety question.
Connected medical devices
Infusion pumps, imaging systems and monitors often run old software that cannot be patched easily. They need segmentation and monitoring rather than hope.
Patient data everywhere
Records flow between clinics, labs, billing partners and patient portals. Every connection is a place where protected health information can leak.
Lean IT, constant demands
Small teams support clinicians around the clock while also owning security and compliance. Specialist skills and after-hours cover are hard to hire.
Regulations & frameworks
The standards we help you meet
- HIPAA Security Rule
- Requires covered entities and business associates to apply administrative, physical and technical safeguards that protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of electronic protected health information.
- HIPAA Privacy and Breach Notification Rules
- Govern how patient information may be used and disclosed, and require notification to individuals and regulators after certain breaches.
- HITRUST CSF
- A certifiable control framework that harmonizes HIPAA, NIST and other requirements, often requested by health plans and partners as proof of security maturity.
- NIST CSF
- A voluntary framework for managing cybersecurity risk that many healthcare organizations use to structure and report their security programs.
- FDA medical device cybersecurity guidance
- Sets expectations for manufacturers on securing devices and shapes how providers should manage the connected equipment they deploy.
Our approach
How we work with healthcare organizations
- 1
Assess risk to patient data
We perform a HIPAA-style risk analysis across systems, devices and vendors, documenting findings and a prioritized treatment plan you can show regulators.
- 2
Segment and monitor clinical networks
Medical devices and clinical systems are isolated from general traffic and watched by our 24/7 SOC with response playbooks that respect clinical workflows.
- 3
Plan for downtime
We set recovery targets with clinical leaders, build immutable backups and rehearse restoration so downtime procedures and technology work together.
- 4
Prepare for audit
We align policies, training and evidence to HIPAA and, where relevant, HITRUST, so assessments confirm good practice rather than discover gaps.

Case study
Proof from your sector
Do you sign business associate agreements?
Where we handle or can access protected health information, we operate under a business associate agreement and apply safeguards consistent with the HIPAA Security Rule.
Are you HITRUST certified?
HITRUST certification is awarded to an organization after assessment by an authorized assessor. We help you prepare for your own assessment and align controls to the framework.
Can you secure devices that cannot be patched?
Yes. We inventory them, isolate them on restricted network segments, limit what they can reach and monitor their behavior, which reduces risk when updates are not possible.
How do you avoid disrupting clinical work?
Changes are scheduled with clinical leaders, high-risk systems have agreed maintenance windows and our response playbooks avoid actions that would interrupt patient care without approval.
