Hospitals and health sector facilities handle highly confidential data that are essential for patient care. Cybernetic criminals are aware of this, they often attack these systems to retain the data and ask for bailouts. A medical history can have a significant value in the black market, which makes medical data a lucrative objective. Although it is impossible to stop all attacks, health organizations can focus on improving their capacity for recovery and resilience.
In relation to this, Commvault has announced that its advanced technologies can be used to quickly recover electronic medical records (HCE), including Epic and Meditech environments. This announcement underlines the importance of cybercraft in a sector that is one of the most attacked, only overcome by the public administration, according to data from the EU agency for cybersecurity (Enisa).
The new solutions presented allow hospitals to accelerate clean data recovery through a specific supply that creates a safe and ready for production on the cloud. This solution is designed to restore medical records and other essential data without ransomware risk, using isolated backups. In addition, organizations can quickly recover data, applications and cloud configurations, which is crucial to maintain continuous attention to the patient and comply with the regulations of the sector.
Commvault provides a new level of cybercrafts to health organizations besieged by cyber attacks
“Today, the provision of continuous care implies all facets of a health organization, from the operational processes to the experienced medical staff. It begins to understand what is really essential for minimally viable operations. In health care, that means, in part, to ensure that patient records, treatment plans and programming systems are again accessible quickly after an attack, ”says Michael Carroll, vice president of Commvault health care area.
Cybersyliencia in the health sector
Cybersyliencia is essential to ensure that hospitals and other medical facilities can continue to effectively operate even after a cyber attack. The advanced solutions presented not only help organizations to recover rapidly, but also allow them to comply with the regulations of the sector and maintain the confidence of patients.
The solutions presented by Commvault offer exceptional cyber resilience for health environments by allowing:
- Clean and isolated recovery: Creation of a safe and ready for production on demand in the cloud, designed for restoration without ransomware of medical records and other essential data.
- Proactive cyber tests: Organizations can use these solutions to test their recovery plans, making sure they can recover rapidly in case of an attack.
- Almost snapshots in the cloud: It allows suppliers to discover, protect and quickly recover complete application environments, including critical applications such as HCE systems. This is crucial for the provision of uninterrupted care to patients after cyber attack.
