Healthcare Is the #1 Ransomware Target - By Design.

Threat actors know clinical environments can't stay offline. That urgency commands premium ransoms and faster payments than any other sector.

EHR & Clinical Databases

Epic, Cerner, and auxiliary diagnostic systems contain high-value PHI and represent a massive integration risk. Legacy versions with unpatched CVEs create persistent footholds across mid-size health systems. Data exfiltration from these platforms triggers HIPAA breach notification and OCR investigation.

IoMT / Medical Devices

Unpatched infusion pumps and imaging equipment running legacy firmware are highly vulnerable to network lateral movement. These devices lack modern authentication and cannot be updated without clinical downtime. A compromised medical device is not a data breach — it is a patient safety crisis.

Supply Chain & Vendors

Third-party billing providers, pharmacies, and labs handling PHI under Business Associate Agreements represent a critical entry vector. These vendors often maintain weaker security posture while retaining full access to sensitive patient records. Over 60% of healthcare breaches now trace back to a third-party relationship.

We Map Directly to the Frameworks You're Accountable For.

Our MDR and vCISO programs align to healthcare-specific regulatory requirements out of the box - no custom configuration engagement needed to start.

HIPAA Security Rule Administrative, physical, and technical safeguards addressing access control, audit logging, encryption, and breach notification — built into every Offset Security healthcare engagement from day one.
HITECH Act Enhanced penalty tiers, expanded breach notification timelines, and Business Associate accountability requirements — our IR program delivers full HITECH-compliant response documentation.
NIST CSF (Healthcare Profile) Structural alignment to the five NIST functions mapped specifically to clinical environments — Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover — with documented control evidence for regulatory examination.

Purpose-Built for Clinical Environments.

Every engagement is designed by practitioners who have worked inside healthcare organizations - not adapted from enterprise IT playbooks.

01 - Detection & Response

24/7 MDR for Healthcare

Continuous threat monitoring across EHR systems, clinical endpoints, medical device networks, and remote access infrastructure. HIPAA-aware alert triage eliminates false-positive fatigue while ensuring every real threat gets an analyst response in under 9 minutes. PHI-compliant SIEM and log management included.

02 - Security Program Ownership

vCISO & HIPAA Program Management

Your fractional CISO builds and owns your HIPAA Security Program: annual risk analysis, policy library, BAA inventory, Security Rule gap assessments, and Board-level reporting. We own the compliance program so your team can focus on care delivery.

03 - Human Risk Reduction

Clinical Staff Security Awareness

Phishing simulations and micro-training tailored to clinical workflows - not generic IT awareness modules. Scenario libraries cover credential phishing, ransomware lures, scheduling software fraud, and HIPAA minimum necessary violations. Compliance tracked by role and department.

04 - Proactive Assessment

Penetration Testing & Risk Assessments

Annual HIPAA-required risk assessments combined with network pen testing scoped to clinical environments. Medical device segmentation testing, VPN gateway assessment, EHR access control review. Full documentation for Covered Entity or Business Associate evidence files.

We'll map your current HIPAA posture, identify your three highest-risk gaps, and show you exactly what a 90-day remediation roadmap looks like - at no obligation.
