Secure connected medical devices across healthcare environments

Medical Device Security provides continuous visibility, automated risk assessment, and proactive threat prevention for connected medical devices without disrupting patient care delivery.

Aggregated visibility

Gain continuous visibility into every connected medical device without adding sensors or disrupting care delivery.

Risk assessment and prioritization

Automated medical device risk assessment factors in device type, criticality to patient care, and exposure to prioritize vulnerabilities that threaten safety, availability, or compliance.

Proactive risk mitigation

Identity-aware policies and guided virtual patching enable proactive protection for medical devices, securing even legacy or unpatchable systems without interrupting care.

Why medical device security

Healthcare environments face unique security challenges with thousands of connected medical devices critical to patient care that cannot be patched or taken offline.

Medical Device Security Dashboard

Healthcare-specific security challenges

Medical devices represent one of the largest attack surfaces in healthcare networks. Legacy systems, proprietary protocols, and devices critical to patient care create security gaps that traditional security tools cannot address.

Medical Device Security provides visibility into device inventory, automated risk assessment based on clinical context, and virtual patching capabilities that protect devices without requiring manufacturer updates or system downtime.

  • Comprehensive device inventory: Discover and classify all connected medical devices across healthcare facilities.
  • Clinical context-aware risk scoring: Prioritize vulnerabilities based on patient care impact and device criticality.
  • Virtual patching for legacy devices: Protect unpatchable medical devices without requiring manufacturer updates.

Medical device security capabilities

Comprehensive security capabilities protect medical devices throughout their lifecycle without disrupting clinical operations.

Automated device discovery

Machine learning classifies connected medical devices by type, manufacturer, model, and clinical function without requiring agent installation.

Vulnerability management

Continuous vulnerability assessment identifies risks specific to medical devices including FDA recalls, manufacturer advisories, and known vulnerabilities.

Policy-based segmentation

Identity-aware policies enforce network segmentation based on device type, risk profile, and clinical workflow requirements.

Threat prevention

Inline threat prevention blocks malware, exploits, and anomalous behavior targeting medical devices without impacting device operation.

Deployment flexibility

Medical Device Security deploys without requiring changes to existing network infrastructure or medical device configurations.
