Forescout Acquires CyberMDX to Expand Healthcare Cybersecurity Focus

Forescout Technologies, the leader in Active Defense for the Enterprise of Things, announced its acquisition of CyberMDX, a leading healthcare cybersecurity provider delivering visibility and threat prevention for medical devices and clinical networks. The acquisition further strengthens Forescout’s position as the industry leader in out-of-the-box support for the broadest set of connected device types across IT, IoT, OT and IoMT devices.

Forescout is recognized by many of the world’s largest organizations as the leader in device visibility and control, ensuring customers can see all the devices connected to their networks, continuously and in real-time, and then take automated action to mitigate risks. CyberMDX offers a leading solution for visibility and risk management of IoMT devices. Together, Forescout and CyberMDX have a powerful platform that delivers an easy-to-use, scalable and agentless approach to device visibility, classification, threat detection and incident response focused on IoMT devices to better serve healthcare organizations.

Broad coverage across all device types is essential as larger organizations, such as healthcare, almost always have a wide variety of device types, including IT and a rapidly expanding number of IoT devices, in addition to IoMT and OT devices. Forescout has the largest number of deployments of OT infrastructure protection solutions globally, with major deployments in critical infrastructure sectors such as energy and utilities. CyberMDX, which was recognized as a Medical Device Security Solution Leader in The Forrester New Wave™: Connected Medical Device Security, Q2 2020, further demonstrates Forescout’s commitment to providing organizations with the most comprehensive solution across all device types.

With the addition of CyberMDX’s solution, Forescout customers will be able to gain deeper visibility and risk management of their IoMT and medical devices.
