In March, Forescout announced their strategic partnership with Medigate, a provider of medical device security and asset management offerings.
The combined Forescout-Medigate solution helps healthcare customers continuously discover, identify, assess and secure all Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), Internet of Things (IoT), operational technology (OT) and IT network-connected devices. It can streamline and simplify management while also mitigating the risk of compromise across heterogeneous device types and network tiers.
Forescout is excited about this resell partnership as it further strengthens their healthcare solution for current and prospective customers in the healthcare space. Healthcare organizations are prime targets of cyberattacks and suffer from slow breach response rates. They operate in complex device vendor environments and are subject to special compliance requirements, such as e.g. NIST requirements. This new partnership helps to fill these gaps and gives customers the confidence they need to reduce cyber risks and run their organizations without disruption.
Key benefits of this joint solution are:
- Gain passive and in-depth insight into clinical devices
- Reduce IoMT management overhead and compliance costs
- Mitigate risk by continuously enforcing device security and configuration compliance
- Streamline adoption of new IoMT and IoT innovations
