Protect patient data and clinical systems,
without slowing care.
Hospitals, clinics, labs and health-tech firms hold the data attackers value most and run operations that cannot stop. We watch around the clock and respond in minutes, inside the limits of clinical workflow.
Why attackers target healthcare.
Urgent operations, valuable records and a sprawling device estate make the sector a reliable target.
Ransomware on clinical systems
Groups encrypt electronic health records and scheduling systems, knowing downtime affects patient care and raises the pressure to pay.
Health record theft
Personal health information is permanent and sells well. Attackers steal it for extortion and fraud, often before any encryption.
Connected medical devices
Infusion pumps, monitors and imaging systems often run unpatchable legacy software. One weak device can be a pivot into the clinical network.
Snooping and insider access
Unauthorized viewing of patient records by staff is a privacy breach in its own right, and audit logs are often the only evidence.
Vendor and shared-service risk
Shared health networks, cloud clinical apps and managed providers connect many organizations. A breach at one can reach the others.
The rules you answer to.
Emirate and national health rules first, then data protection law across the GCC and Asia, then the US rule that applies when you serve American patients.

Security that respects clinical reality.
Medical device segmentation
We inventory connected devices, assess their exposure and design segmentation that contains a compromised device without interrupting care.
Health record monitoring
Detection of unusual record access and bulk data movement around your clinical systems, with alerts your privacy office can act on.
Ransomware recovery planning
Playbooks and exercises built around clinical downtime procedures, so the plan works when the EHR is offline.
How we help healthcare organizations.
MSOC
An autonomous SOC watching clinical and corporate networks around the clock, containing threats in under two minutes.
Learn more →IR retainer
Pre-agreed terms and guaranteed response from four hours down to one, with breach notification support built in.
Learn more →Ransomware readiness
Test whether you could recover from an attack on clinical systems, before you have to.
Learn more →Network segmentation
Separate medical devices and clinical systems so one compromise cannot spread across the hospital.
Learn more →RagnarökPenetration testing
Testing of clinical networks, patient portals, telehealth platforms and connected devices.
Learn more →BifrostDigital forensics
What was accessed, by whom and when, documented to a standard regulators and courts accept.
Learn more →What buyers ask.
Will monitoring interfere with clinical systems?
No. We collect telemetry passively where systems are sensitive, agree response boundaries with your clinical and IT leads in advance, and take nothing irreversible on a clinical system without sign-off.
We are a hospital, not a bank. Do we need a 24/7 SOC?
Attackers time ransomware for nights and weekends because that is when nobody is watching. Healthcare runs around the clock, and so should detection.
Can you help with a breach notification?
We investigate what was accessed and by whom, and give your privacy office the facts it needs to notify patients and the regulator. Legal advice stays with your counsel.
Where does patient data go?
We deploy to meet each client's data-residency requirements, including in-country where regulation requires it, and we operate to the group's SOC 2 Type II controls.
