As a leader within the healthcare industry, you will be well aware of the scale of cyber risk in healthcare – consistently among the most frequently targeted industries.

Attacks on hospitals, health trusts, GP practices and other healthcare bodies have the potential to lead to the loss of sensitive patient data and disrupt the provision of vital services. Digital transformation in the sector is only making it more imperative for healthcare companies to respond proactively to the latest cyber security threats. Read on to learn how Kroll can help your organisation to address these challenges.

NHS security assessments

Specialist healthcare security assessments that avoid operational disruption

As a CREST accredited provider of security assessment services, Redscan can help you to review and enhance your organisation’s cyber security posture in a way that won’t risk disrupting critical medical devices.

Our proprietary asset discovery system captures and analyses network metadata to reliably identify known and unknown devices, thereby enabling internal and external vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to be performed safely.

Detailed post assessment reports categorise risks and supply actionable remediation advice to help address any vulnerabilities identified. Reports can be customised and used to demonstrate compliance with the latest regulations and standards. This includes NDG Standard 9, which requires organisations within the NHS to undertake pen testing at least once annually.

ThreatDetect MDR

NHS security monitoring

Swiftly detect and respond to healthcare data breaches

With so many access points, users and devices to protect, it’s inevitable that a persistent attacker will eventually find a way to bypass your organisation’s defences. This makes it imperative to detect and respond to malicious activity before any damage and disruption can be inflicted.

Kroll Responder is an outcome-focused Managed Detection and Response service that supplies the people, technology and cyberoffensive intelligence required to proactively hunt for threats and shut them down. Employee workstations, network equipment and clinical devices can all be monitored as part of the service, which also offers automated response actions to contain and disrupt attacks before they spread.
