What We Set Out to Improve.

Industry
HealthTech

Multi-regional hospital network with 50,000+ connected infusion pumps, monitors, and imaging systems.

How We Worked
Dedicated product team

Cyber-Security Architect + AI Engineer + IoT Specialist embedded within the Bio-Medical Engineering division.

Goal
Fleet Integrity & Patient Safety

Transitioning from reactive manual patching to automated, AI-powered threat detection and remediation.

What We Built
AI-powered Security Platform

A practical solution designed around the client’s existing tools, teams, and day-to-day workflow.

What Was Getting in the Way.

The hospital network managed an un-inventoryable fleet of 50,000+ Connected medical devices, many running older firmware with known CVEs. Manual patching was physically impossible and required taking critical devices offline, risking patient outcomes during high-capacity shifts.

The biggest issues were ransomware exposure, day-to-day overhead, and compliance liability. The team needed a faster, clearer way to manage the work while keeping the right checks in place.

Ransomware Exposure
Unpatched medical devices acted as a perimeter-less entry point for coordinated lateral-movement attacks.
Day-to-day overhead
Manual security audits were costing the system millions in bio-medical labor and device unavailability.
Compliance Liability
Failure to secure device Patient health information-access violated strict HIPAA and OCR requirements for technical safeguards.
The Solution

What We Built.

01
Edge Behavioral Monitoring
Introduced lightweight listeners to capture device-specific traffic patterns, identifying Normal baselines for everything from MRIs to heart monitors.

Before and After

How the Workflow Improved.

Area
Before
After
Vulnerability MTTP

180+ Days

Devices remained vulnerable for months while waiting for manual physical updates.

Sub-24 Hours

AI-powered automation prioritizes and deploys patches as soon as firmware is validated.

Detection

Signature-Based

Could only detect known threats, leaving the network blind to zero-day device exploits.

Behavioral AI

Identifies Peer-Group anomalies (e.g. why is this pump talking to the public web?).

Clinical Impact

Service Disruption

Security updates required clinical downtime, delaying scheduled procedures.

Zero Downtime

Patches are cached at the edge and introduced during validated idle cycles.

Key Features

What Made the Solution Useful.

AI Assisted

Automated Isolation Engine

When a threat is detected, the AI assistant quarantines the device at the network level while preserving basic clinical functionality.

Business impact
Zero Lateral Movement
HIPAA GATED

Privacy-Preserving Monitoring

Federated Learning patterns ensure that device security data is shared for learning without ever moving Patient health information off-premises.

Business impact
HIPAA compliance
ZERO DOWNTIME

Intelligent Batching

The system monitors hospital throughput to ensure security workloads never compete with critical device monitoring.

Business impact
92% MTTP Reduction
Faster Delivery

How We Reduced Build Time.

Tested foundations helped the team spend less time on setup and more time on the parts that made this product useful.

What accelerated the work

4 reusable building blocks
01

Connected medical device Identity Module

A tested starting point for connected medical device identity module reduced repeated setup work.

02

Federated Learning Module

Reusable work for federated learning module let the team focus more time on the client’s specific needs.

03

Cyber-Physical Monitoring Platform

This made it easier to add cyber-physical monitoring platform without rebuilding common foundations.

04

Controlled-access Platform Module

A tested starting point for controlled-access platform module reduced repeated setup work.

How We Kept It Safe and Reliable.

01
HIPAA Privacy Integrity
Monitoring only captures device network-behavior. no Patient health information ever enters the security platform.
HIPAA GATED
02
Traceable Remediation Logs
Every patch deployment and isolation event is logged to a secure, auditable blockchain ledger.
