Dayton Children's Hospital Enables Zero Trust with ORDR
Dayton Children's Hospital demonstrates how zero trust architecture strengthens medical device security and asset visibility in healthcare environments. Learn how a leading pediatric institution implemented ORDR to gain comprehensive device inventory, reduce security blind spots, and establish zero trust principles across connected clinical assets.
What you'll learn
- Implement zero trust architecture specifically for medical device environments and clinical networks
- Build complete asset inventory of connected medical devices to eliminate security visibility gaps
- Establish device security baselines and continuous monitoring aligned with healthcare compliance requirements
Frequently asked questions
- How does zero trust architecture apply to medical device environments?
- Zero trust for medical devices means treating every connected asset as potentially untrusted and requiring continuous verification, regardless of network location. ORDR enables this by providing real-time device inventory, behavioral baselines, and segmentation controls that enforce strict access policies across clinical networks without disrupting device operations.
- What visibility gaps do healthcare organizations have with medical devices?
- Many hospitals lack complete inventory of connected clinical devices, creating blind spots where unmanaged or rogue devices can operate undetected. ORDR automatically discovers and catalogs all connected medical devices across networks, eliminating these visibility gaps and enabling security teams to establish proper monitoring and segmentation.
- Can you implement zero trust without disrupting clinical device operations?
- Yes, ORDR's approach uses passive discovery and continuous monitoring to establish device baselines and segmentation policies without requiring device modifications or downtime. This allows healthcare organizations like Dayton Children's to strengthen security while maintaining compliance and operational continuity in critical clinical environments.
