Summary
Healthcare organizations are increasingly focused on the security of Internet of Things (IoT) devices as they become essential to patient care and hospital operations. A KLAS Research report highlights that the proliferation of connected clinical devices has intensified the need for security teams to ensure real-time visibility and mitigate alert fatigue. Hospitals are now assessing security vendors based on their ability to deliver measurable results, such as quicker risk remediation and effective integration with existing security systems. However, despite the variety of approaches from vendors like Armis and Palo Alto Networks, none have fully met user expectations, underscoring the critical need for comprehensive asset visibility and actionable insights to enhance security in healthcare settings.
