Frequently asked questions
- How can hospitals discover and inventory hidden medical devices on their network?
- ORDR's AI-powered discovery identifies all connected medical devices, including IoT and OT assets that traditional tools miss—including the 42% of devices that typically go undetected. This complete visibility is the foundation for effective device management and security across healthcare environments.
- What is microsegmentation and why does it matter for medical device security?
- Microsegmentation isolates medical devices into secure network zones, preventing lateral movement if a breach occurs and limiting the blast radius of attacks. ORDR helps hospitals implement microsegmentation strategies that protect critical patient-care devices while maintaining operational efficiency.
- How do you prioritize which medical devices to secure first?
- ORDR's risk assessment approach evaluates each device based on patient safety impact, clinical criticality, and vulnerability severity. This helps hospitals focus security investments on the devices that pose the greatest risk, enabling strategic resource allocation.
