The threat of cyberattacks against medical and IoT devices is massive and exponentially increasing risk for healthcare systems. Gartner estimates that the number of medical devices that will need to be “hardened” by healthcare systems will increase 45% by 2020.¹ In the absence of a solution like this, healthcare systems will need to cobble together a patchwork of tools and manual processes comprising multiple and disparate systems-of-record, naming convention mismatches that will introduce friction and risk to their ability to effectively combat cyber threats.

“We believe cybersecurity is a key part of any medical device management plan. The key to risk management is having the right solutions that address all facets of the problem,” said Mark Woodruff, CTO MediMizer. “Our integration with Asimily provides cybersecurity capabilities that deliver on the promise of keeping connected devices safe and reliable, protect patients and allow HTM departments the tools to shield the healthcare system from the liabilities and exposures resulting from cybersecurity exploits.”
