Network Security White Papers
The Challenge of Securing Hard to Patch Servers in Health Care Environments
Overview As the healthcare industry continues to benefit from increasing interconnectivity among disparate systems, such as patient record systems and medical devices, new risks will continue to emerge. Most significant among those risks are the proliferation of networked medical devices and the inability of administrators to quickly mitigate vulnerabilities. Patient privacy is at risk, healthcare provider reputation is at risk, and the fate of ongoing audits are at risk. In the face of this inability to patch quickly, most of the solutions on the market are poorly suited to mitigate the vulnerabilities and provide an adequate compensating control, without compromising system availability, flooding administrators with noisy false-positive alerts, or requiring significant and ongoing tuning. PatchPoint is uniquely suited to address this problem.
