The Challenge

Medical Device Vulnerabilities Put Patients at Risk

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has transformed patient care, but it's also created healthcare's largest attack surface:

•15,000+ connected medical devices in a typical hospital system, many running outdated operating systems
•78% of medical devices contain known vulnerabilities (source: FDA guidance 2023)
•Medical devices cannot be scanned or have agents installed without violating FDA regulations
•270-day average threat dwell time in healthcare networks, not because threats aren't detected, but because teams can't act safely

Traditional security tools weren't designed for healthcare's unique constraints. Vulnerability scanners can crash life-critical equipment. Agent-based protection violates regulatory requirements. And visibility platforms only show you the problem; they don't fix it.
