The Healthcare Security Crisis

Healthcare is the #1 Target for Ransomware — and Patient Lives Are at Stake

Healthcare has surpassed all other sectors as the primary target for ransomware attacks. The reason is stark: hospitals have zero tolerance for system downtime, patient records command the highest prices on criminal forums, and the medical device estate presents an enormous and frequently unmonitored attack surface that threat actors systematically exploit.

The consequences extend beyond data breaches. In documented cases, ransomware-induced clinical system outages have directly contributed to patient harm. Healthcare cybersecurity is, in the most literal sense, a matter of life and death — requiring specialist expertise, not generic IT security.

Healthcare is the most targeted sector for ransomware for the 13th consecutive year (HHS 2025)

74% of medical devices in average hospital networks have at least one known exploitable vulnerability

Our Methodology

5-Phase Healthcare Security Engagement

A clinical-context-aware methodology that maintains patient care continuity throughout every phase of assessment and remediation.

01

Healthcare Asset Discovery & Classification

We conduct a comprehensive discovery of your connected medical estate — clinical information systems, medical devices, IoT sensors, imaging equipment, and cloud platforms — classifying each by sensitivity and criticality to patient safety.

02

Regulatory Compliance Assessment

A structured assessment against DPDP Act requirements for health data, HIPAA obligations for international operations, NABH cybersecurity standards, and applicable state health data regulations — identifying compliance gaps requiring urgent remediation.

03

Clinical Systems & Medical Device Security Testing

Targeted penetration testing of your EMR/EHR platforms, laboratory information systems, PACS/RIS imaging systems, connected medical devices, and the networks that connect them — replicating the techniques used by ransomware groups targeting healthcare.

04

Remediation Prioritisation

A risk-prioritised remediation roadmap that sequences fixes based on patient safety impact and regulatory urgency — ensuring clinical teams remain operational while the most critical vulnerabilities are rapidly addressed.

05

Security Awareness & Ongoing Assurance

Healthcare breaches most frequently originate from human error. We deliver targeted security awareness programmes for clinical staff and sustained quarterly security assurance testing to maintain your hardened posture over time.
