Managed Security Services for Healthcare Organizations
Simplify cybersecurity and safeguard patient trust with managed security services
Proactive, Expertly Managed Cybersecurity
Achieving proactive cybersecurity is often seen as unachievable for healthcare organizations. Security challenges are on the rise, with new threats emerging daily. In 2023, nearly half of all healthcare IT professionals reported experiencing a ransomware attack. And in the first six months of 2024, more than 350 ransomware attacks on healthcare organizations, each impacting more than 500 individuals, were reported to the U.S. Office for Civil Rights.
The threat landscape is not going to get any better. To survive in this era, healthcare organizations must know their IT environment is protected by a savvy team equipped with the skills, training, and technology to safeguard their business.
Despite the intensity of these challenges, effective cybersecurity is not an insurmountable task for healthcare organizations. Many healthcare businesses have realized that managed security services can significantly enhance their security posture and help thwart cybersecurity threats.

Achieve around-the-clock security

organizations impacted
by ransomware found that
36% experienced more complications
in medical procedures, and 22% reported increased mortality rates.
While the cost of a healthcare
data breach fell in 2024, these
breaches still are significantly more costly
than breaches in other industries, coming in at
$9.77 million as compared to the overall cost of
a breach being $4.88 million.
Attain compliance
The cybersecurity healthcare compliance landscape continues to expand. Managed security services is the key to ensure you meet and maintain regulatory compliance including for HIPAA, PCI DSS 4.0, GDPR, and others.
