), today announced it has partnered with CrowdStrike, a leading provider of 
cloud-delivered endpoint and workload protection, to provide healthcare 
delivery organizations (HDOs) with the industry's first consolidated view of 
threat activity and incident response capability spanning all connected assets.

With the number of medical devices connecting to a hospital's network 
increasing on a daily basis, HDOs struggle to maintain visibility of the 
location and activity of each endpoint that a device may connect to, as well as 
protect and manage them. Medigate and CrowdStrike solve this challenge by 
streamlining security responses and improving overall network efficiency. 

The CrowdStrike Falcon(R) platform integrates with the Medigate platform 
allowing HDOs to perform comprehensive risk management, anomaly detection and 
enhanced response. The integration provides hospitals with comprehensive 
visibility into all managed and unmanaged devices along with enhanced threat 
detection capabilities that power accurate responses.

"We've seen a significant number of cyber and ransomware attacks against 
hospitals in the past year and it will only continue to rise in the future. A 
hospital's focus needs to be on patient care, rather than responding to outside 
threats," said Matthew Polly, vice president of Worldwide Alliances, Channels 
and Business Development at Crowdstrike. "Medigate's unique focus on the 
healthcare IoT industry is highly effective in helping to reduce attack 
surfaces. With CrowdStrike and Medigate, HDOs can accurately see, detect, 
respond and prevent attacks across the IT and clinical landscape to keep their 
operations and their data – including the patient information – safe." 

"Today's HDOs face specific challenges that need specialized solutions, not 
only in securing their vital personnel and devices, but in creating processes 
that ensure the benefits of connected health. By partnering with CrowdStrike, 
we are delivering on this vision by empowering HDOs to detect and shut-down 
attacks," said Jonathan Langer, chief executive officer of Medigate. "The 
endpoint protections our joint solution enables positions HDOs for the safe 
adoption of telehealth, remote patient monitoring and other networked care 
initiatives."

Todd Felker, former Director of Information Security at Torrance Memorial 
Medical Center: "As care delivery continues to fragment, the need for a 
centrally managed, integrated approach to securing both clinical and 
non-clinical endpoints is obvious. That's why the Medigate/CrowdStrike 
partnership makes so much sense. I'm sure my enthusiasm for the benefits of 
this partnership are shared across the industry."
