Under this partnership, Medigate's IoT security platform will integrate with Rapid7 InsightVM and Nexpose vulnerability management systems, allowing HDOs, clinics and other HIPAA-covered entities a secure way to manage connected assets.

"Todd Felker, director of information security at Torrance Memorial Medical Center commented,"The integration between Rapid7 and Medigate is crucial and helps on both fronts.

"It saves you money on the number of IPs to be scanned by Rapid7 by having Medigate provide the IoT scanning exclusions, and it provides accurate vulnerability data on the Medigate-side with the servers and computers that integrate with your medical devices."

Medigate and Rapid7's integrated solution benefits derive from a bi-directional data integration scheme that delivers each system continuously refreshed, fully synchronized intelligence powering healthcare security and asset management ecosystems.

"As healthcare organizations adopt new digital innovations and new advances - such as telehealth - they must also embrace the security protocols and framework to protect this technology and guard against clinical risks," said Jonathan Langer, CEO of Medigate.

"Our partnership with Rapid7 is critical for our healthcare customers who are increasingly under attack. It's essential they have the tools to protect themselves and take action as warranted."
