Analyzing Risk in Connected Medical Devices
Forescout Research Labs reports on how healthcare organizations can manage risks from insiders, outsiders and legacy equipment.
Research Report
Connected Medical Device Security
Forescout Research Labs provides cybersecurity insights based on analyses of healthcare organizations served by the Forescout Device Cloud. It reveals risks associated with the use of legacy systems and insufficient segmentation, with many examples of poor security hygiene. This assessment of the state of device security in healthcare delivery organizations includes:
- Adjacency risks, with 90% of networks having medical devices on the same segments as non-medical IT devices and 60% of medical devices segmented with non-medical IoT devices
- Insecure protocol usage leading to clear-text transmission of patient information
- Healthcare equipment left with default credentials residing alongside IT and IoT equipment
- Alarming percentages of critical legacy systems running unsupported Windows versions
Only Forescout can automate protection and mitigation of IoT device risk across your healthcare network
Gain complete device visibility
Real-time visibility and classification of every device enables Zero Trust control at enterprise scale.
Segment without disruption
Risky IoT devices are contained in secure trust zones without impacting medical operations
Monitor for unusual communications
Continuous communications monitoring enables defense against spoofing and other risk indicators.
Automate response and remediation
Real-time visibility and classification of every device enables Zero Trust control at enterprise scale.
Forescout’s agentless approach was key, as was its ability to give us full visibility into all devices, including medical devices connected to or attempting to connect to our network.
