Healthcare Cybersecurity & IoMT Protection
Keep your healthcare company secure from threat actors with careful management of machine identities for your medical devices.
Why cybersecurity in healthcare is important
The average hospital is home to nearly 85,000 devices, so it comes as no surprise that healthcare is one of the most targeted sectors by threat actors.
The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) provides greater mobility and flexibility in providing patient care, but those conveniences come at a cost. IoMT devices like infusion pumps, pacemakers, monitors, MRI/CT scanners and more are inherently less secure. That’s why they all need to be monitored and verified with machine identities.
Because you know that in the healthcare sector, it’s not just your data and your reputation that’s at risk—it’s human lives.
$10.1 million
Healthcare breaches are the most expensive, costing on average, $10.1 million in 2022.

White Paper
Machine identity complexity is causing massive problems.
The perimeter is dead, and the rapid expansion of cloud native infrastructure has caused an explosion of new machine identities—and staggering levels of difficulty in managing them. Read this 1-page brief to learn how a control plane standardizes your approach to machine identity management.
Establish clear visibility of all machine identities
Leave no stone unturned. Uncover 25-30% more certificates during your discovery phase with Venafi.
Using complete discovery capabilities, you can build a centralized inventory of all machine identities across medical devices in your healthcare organization to avoid expirations, prevent outages—which can also result in disruption of patient care—and pinpoint system vulnerabilities.
Establish Clear Policies
Automate 65-85% of your certificate lifecycle management.
Define and enforce company-wide machine identity policy through automation even for immense inventories of IoMT devices spread across complex, distributed environments.
Validate machines to ensure ongoing patient care
Avoid destructive ransomware attacks that cost, on average, $4.62m per occurrence.
Use secure code signing processes to authenticate your IoMT devices and the software running on them to prevent tampering, breaches or disruption of care.
Work the way you want
Orchestrate machine identities across the applications your medical organization is already using by integrating with our extensive technology partner Ecosystem.
The world’s top healthcare companies aren’t alone in relying on Venafi to protect their machine identities.
