HowTo: Protect Medical Institutions from Cyber-Attacks

Protecting Medical Institutions Requires a Proactive Zero Trust Approach

Faced with a threat landscape growing in scope and risk, medical institutions need to be proactive about cybersecurity. The alternative — relying on antivirus software for protection — is ineffective because most attacks today don't have detectable signatures.

Instead, healthcare and medical institutions need to move beyond perimeter-based security and adopt zero-trust. This approach treats every device or individual connecting to their networks as a potential intruder until securely verified.

The most efficient way to make verification possible in a fast-moving medical environment is to remove passwords. Going passwordless means that authorized individuals gain access to an unhackable login procedure, making access both safer and more efficient. A passwordless organization instantly removes the most significant attack vector within its operations. Further benefits of a passwordless approach include improved productivity and reduced operational downtime.

Final Thoughts

For institutions where a network breach can expose confidential information and put patients' lives at real risks, cybersecurity is now a matter of life and death. Instead of relying on surrounding themselves with a protective wall, medical institutions need to make cybersecurity an inherent part of their day-to-day operations.

Strong authentication: beyond passwords
Traditional two-factor authentication only adds security to the user side of authentication. The Wave alternative is far more secure: EMBASSY Security Center turns on the TPMs, or security chips, already inside your devices, so you can identify both the users and the devices they’re using. Is that really Bob accessing your quarterly sales numbers? And is he doing it with a secure device? It’s a superior way to protect your data from theft and your system from infection.
