Overview:
Why Do Healthcare Delivery Organizations Need Network Segmentation?
Network segmentation is a technique used by healthcare delivery organizations to address an assortment of issues in IT and IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) infrastructure environments. The main benefits of network segmentation include:
- Improving security hygiene by preventing the lateral movement of threats
- Reducing the scope of HIPAA compliance audits to a limited network segment
- Limiting data exfiltration by controlling access to critical patient data
- Reducing the attack surface for legacy or vulnerable medical systems performing crucial functions
How IoT Security Delivers Effective Network Segmentation
Palo Alto Networks IoT Security powered by the Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) delivers effective segmentation by discovering, profiling, assessing risk, continuous monitoring, and enforcing granular policy for all IoMT and IoT devices. Additionally, IoT Security integrates with NAC technologies to eliminate their IoMT and IoT device blind spots to deliver meaningful segmentation.
Context-Aware Segmentation With NGFW
App-ID™ technology and crowdsourced telemetry to profile all devices for discovery, risk assessment, vulnerability analysis, and anomaly detection. Unlike any other solution in the market, IoT Security analyzes device profiles, context, and behavior to provide Zero Trust-based policy recommendations. These automated policy recommendations are then used by the NGFW for effective segmentation of unmanaged devices. Segmentation policies remain linked to a device even if it moves within a healthcare delivery network
Palo Alto Networks IoT Security considers several factors like device type, function, mission criticality, application behavior pattern, threat level, and more to enable trust zones for IoMT and IoT devices based on Zero Trust principles. These context-aware trust zones significantly reduce the potential impact of the cross-infection of threats between IoMT, IoT, and IT devices. In addition, IoT Security further continually monitors device behavior to find anomalies and refine security policies.
The use of Palo Alto Networks NGFW as a segmentation gateway offers deployment flexibility, allowing the controlled introduction of security policies over IoT devices without a network redesign. Traffic to/from IoT devices can be limited to required resources allowing both north-south and east-west policy enforcement.
Continuous Protection for Connected Medical Devices
Gain real-time visibility, risk-based prioritization, virtual patching and identity-aware controls to protect patient care and ensure continuity.
Gain continuous visibility into every connected medical device without adding sensors or disrupting care delivery.
Automated medical device risk assessment factors in device type, criticality to patient care and exposure to prioritize vulnerabilities that threaten safety, availability or compliance.
Identity-aware policies and guided virtual patching enable proactive protection for medical devices, securing even legacy or unpatchable systems without interrupting care.
Eliminate IoT Blind Spots with Built-in NAC Integration
If you prefer to choose a Network Access Control (NAC) solution to segment your healthcare delivery network, IoT Security provides built-in integration with Cisco ISE, Forescout, and Aruba ClearPass to implement segmentation. NAC technologies only have visibility in devices that can be authenticated using RADIUS and have blind spots to IoMT and IoT devices. IoT Security augments NAC solutions by eliminating their IoMT and IoT discovery and contextual blind spots. IoT Security provides discovery of device information to the NAC solution and provides additional device context to segment them intelligently.
Automate Network Segmentation with IoT Security- IoT device discovery. Discovers and classifies all IoMT, IoT, OT, IT, and Bluetooth devices in your healthcare delivery network, including those never seen before.
- Agentless and passive. Uses machine learning (ML), deep packet inspection (DPI) and crowdsourcing to identify and profile all IoMT and IoT devices
- Vulnerability analysis Finds vulnerability gaps by observing FDA recalls, HIPAA protected health information (PHI), MDS2 manufacturer’s specifications, OS, patch, default password, obsolete protocols, and more.
- Threat and behavior analysis. Assesses and monitors network behaviors of IoMT/IoT devices for device context and threats
- Automated Zero Trust policy recommendations. Creates policy recommendations for IoMT/IoT devices based on their behavior baselining.
- Continuous monitoring. Monitors IoMT/IoT devices at all times to fine-tune policies, prevent known threats and detect unknown threats
- Automated segmentation. Shares context and policy with enforcement solutions to implement segmentation. Provides one-click enforcement natively with NGFW for faster implementation. Then shares the policies automatically with the NAC solutions with built-in integrations
