Essential Cybersecurity Solutions for Protecting Healthcare Organizations

As threat actors and state-sponsored ransomware gangs continue to target and disrupt healthcare services, every Healthcare Delivery Organization (HDO) worldwide is vulnerable to attack, risking the compromise of patient data. To safeguard sensitive information and establish a secure digital infrastructure, the healthcare industry requires advanced cybersecurity solutions that strengthen networks, IoT medical devices, and endpoints.

Safeguard Healthcare Data with SonicWall Solutions

The healthcare industry faces a plethora of challenges in securing its digital infrastructure and safeguarding patient data. Protected health information (PHI) is frequently sold on the dark web, making healthcare one of the most targeted sectors by cybercriminals. Ransomware attacks pose a significant problem, with the potential to disrupt patient care and compromise critical patient data. Moreover, keeping critical infrastructure online and secure is a considerable challenge for healthcare organizations. SonicWall's portfolio of cybersecurity solutions comprehensively addresses the evolving challenges and intricate security requirements of the healthcare sector.

A Zero Trust Solution for Securing IoT Medical Devices

The healthcare industry's rapid technological progress has resulted in an abundance of interconnected medical devices and Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). While these interconnected devices revolutionize patient care and monitoring, they also introduce a new set of cybersecurity risks that threaten the privacy and safety of patient data. To tackle these challenges, organizations are increasingly adopting a zero trust cybersecurity approach to securing IoMT. While SonicWall’s next-generation firewalls minimize IoT attack surfaces through network segmentation, SonicWall’s SMA 1000 Series seamlessly implements least privilege access, reducing the risk of unauthorized access or malicious activity. By implementing these measures, healthcare organizations can better protect sensitive patient data and reduce the likelihood of successful cyberattacks.

HIPAA Compliance in the
Digital Age

In today's digital age, healthcare organizations are increasingly relying on electronic health records (EHRs) to manage patient information. However, this shift to electronic records has created new challenges for securing patient data and complying with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations. SonicWall cybersecurity solutions help healthcare organizations meet the requirements of HIPAA compliance by providing technical safeguards to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of patient data. SonicWall’s Managed Service Providers (MSPs) are experts in helping healthcare organizations achieve and maintain regulatory compliance through the implementation of a comprehensive cybersecurity solution including access controls, endpoint protection, encryption and firewalls.

Securing Wireless Networks in Healthcare Facilities: Balancing Convenience and Security

SonicWall Wireless Access Points (WAPs) are a popular choice for healthcare organizations due to their strong security features and ease of deployment.  Using Wi-Fi 6 technology, the SonicWave 600 Series access points provide secure and reliable wireless connectivity for staff, patients, and visitors, while preventing cyber threats, such as malware and ransomware, from entering the healthcare organization's network. Easily managed and monitored through Wireless Network Manager, a cloud-based management platform, the SonicWave access points provide healthcare organizations with a comprehensive solution for wireless connectivity that prioritizes security and ease of use.

Maximize New Investments by Strengthening Existing Ones

SonicWall products can provide cost-effective security solutions for any cloud, hybrid or traditional environment in the healthcare industry. Healthcare organizations need to balance security needs with cost-efficiency, and SonicWall products are designed with this in mind. In addition, SonicWall’s product portfolio can be easily integrated into multiple platforms, allowing you to build on existing security investments. By providing cost-effective security solutions, SonicWall can help healthcare organizations secure their sensitive data while staying within their budget.
