Healthcare

Healthcare organizations face persistent pressure around privacy, staffing, vendor sprawl, operational disruption, and communication risk, all while running clinical operations that cannot pause for security work.

Context

How we support this sector.

We help healthcare and healthcare-adjacent organizations improve security posture through vCISO advisory, audit support, domain trust, documentation, training, and governance. The work is shaped to clinical realities, not generic compliance theater.

What we hear most

Challenges shaping security work here.

01

HIPAA and OCR posture

Risk analysis, documented controls, BAAs, and audit-ready evidence, under continuous OCR enforcement attention.

02

Vendor sprawl

EHRs, RCM platforms, telehealth, imaging, IoT devices, and AI tools all carry risk that needs governance.

03

Patient and staff communications

Phishing and spoofing aimed at staff, patients, and partners. A leading source of incident exposure.

04

Limited internal security capacity

Most organizations have IT, but rarely a full security leadership stack.

05

AI in clinical and administrative settings

Documentation, scheduling, coding, and clinical-decision-support tools need governance and oversight.
