INDIANAPOLIS — July 26, 2023 — TRIMEDX―an industry-leading, independent clinical asset management company delivering clinical engineering services, clinical asset informatics, and medical device cybersecurity―announced the launch of Vigilor, independent cybersecurity services available to all health systems. Vigilor from TRIMEDX is a comprehensive closed-loop medical device cybersecurity program working with health systems’ existing clinical engineering, biomed, and IT security teams, as well as technology and processes. This allows healthcare organizations of any cybersecurity maturity to establish a comprehensive device cybersecurity program no matter where they’re starting and to minimize risk & positively impact patient safety.
Health systems are facing unprecedented challenges. Staffing shortages, increased labor and supply costs, declining margins, and increasing cyberattacks as well as new & evolving regulations and legislation are all putting more pressure on healthcare organizations and dividing the attention of leaders and associates. The drastic financial, operational, and safety consequences of cyberattacks against health systems mean that healthcare organizations need an ever more serious and urgent prioritization of their cybersecurity programs.
“Cybersecurity insurance premiums have risen over 103% in the last year, with breaches costing healthcare organizations on average over $10M,” says Scott Trevino, senior vice president of cybersecurity. “It is more important than ever for health systems to improve their overall cyber-risk posture to ensure patient safety and reduce exposure to operational and financial risk.”
