Video Highlights

  • It’s now harder to secure healthcare environments, because data no longer resides within the four walls of the data center, and endpoints can be anywhere.
  • Zero trust is key to healthcare organizations’ efforts to secure their environments. Creating proper network segmentation is the first step to achieving zero trust.
  • Automation allows secure access to thousands of different devices without burdening healthcare IT departments.
