Healthcare Cybersecurity

Securing the systems that protect lives.

Healthcare is one of the most targeted sectors on the planet. Patient records, connected medical devices, and legacy hospital networks make it an attractive target for ransomware groups and data thieves. We help hospitals and clinics find the vulnerabilities before attackers do.

Why healthcare is a prime target

Health data is among the most valuable on the dark web, worth up to 10x more than credit card numbers. Hospitals face unique risks that most cybersecurity firms do not understand.

Patient Data Theft

Electronic health records contain names, national IDs, diagnoses, and insurance details. A single breach can expose thousands of patients and trigger NDP Act 2023 violations.

$10.93M avg. cost per healthcare breach

Connected Medical Devices

Infusion pumps, imaging systems, and patient monitors are often running outdated software with known vulnerabilities. A compromised device does not just leak data; it can endanger lives.

70% of medical devices run unsupported OS

Ransomware Attacks

Hospitals cannot afford downtime. Attackers know this and exploit the urgency. Ransomware has shut down emergency rooms, delayed surgeries, and forced patient diversions to other facilities.

Healthcare #1 ransomware target globally

What we test in healthcare environments

Our senior penetration testers understand clinical workflows, hospital IT architecture, and the regulatory landscape. We test the systems that matter most.

EMR / EHR Systems

Testing electronic medical and health record platforms for authentication bypasses, data exposure, API vulnerabilities, and privilege escalation that could compromise patient records.

Hospital Networks

Internal and external network penetration testing of hospital infrastructure, including Active Directory, segmentation between clinical and administrative zones, and wireless networks.

Medical Devices

Security assessment of networked medical devices, including infusion pumps, imaging systems, and patient monitors. We evaluate firmware, communication protocols, and network exposure.

Patient Portals

Testing patient-facing web applications for authentication flaws, insecure data handling, session management issues, and business logic vulnerabilities in appointment and billing workflows.

Cloud & SaaS Platforms

Security evaluation of cloud-hosted healthcare systems, including AWS, Azure, and GCP environments. IAM review, storage bucket exposure, API gateway testing, and data exfiltration paths.

Mobile Health Apps

Penetration testing of mHealth applications on iOS and Android. We assess data storage, API communication, authentication mechanisms, and compliance with healthcare data handling requirements.
