Composite: a hospital group securing medical devices without downtime
A composite of healthcare engagements: how a hospital group brought thousands of unmanaged medical devices into view without a scan that could disrupt care.
The starting point
A multi-site hospital group with strong corporate IT security, but little visibility of connected medical technology — infusion pumps, imaging modalities, patient monitors — much of it vendor-locked and impossible to agent or actively scan without risk to care.
What they did
They deployed passive, OT-style monitoring to discover and profile devices from observed traffic, building an inventory that finally included the equipment nobody could previously account for. They fed that into the same SOC as corporate IT, so one team saw both sides of an incident. And they guard-railed response, so isolation decisions respected clinical use.
Where it landed
A current asset picture across clinical and corporate estates, 24/7 detection that respects the ward, and evidence that supports HIPAA and equivalent obligations from the same live operation. Discovery stayed passive throughout, because a scan can put a certified device into a state its manufacturer never tested.
