Cyber threats don’t finish business at 5 PM.
“We have a thousand devices from hundreds of manufacturers. Every department made its own IT decisions. Today, it’s nearly impossible to patch all systems in time to prevent security vulnerabilities.”
Navigating a complex network of connected medical devices and systems that must remain operational at all times is a difficult challenge. Every minute of disruption affects patient care, making conventional security methods inadequate for today’s healthcare needs.
Given the constraints of limited budgets, a shortage of cybersecurity talent, and ongoing demands to allocate resources towards medical equipment, ensuring strong security measures appears to be a daunting challenge. Healthcare personnel are currently operating at maximum capacity, rendering specialized security management an unattainable luxury for most.
Cybercriminals are well aware of the weaknesses within the healthcare sector. Ransomware aimed at patient records and assaults on essential medical devices are on the rise. With the digitalization of patient data, there is a much higher risk, requiring an ongoing effort to defend critical systems and sensitive patient information.
When you’re managing thousands of devices across multiple departments with limited IT resources and increasing cyber threats, your team needs specialized support.
Think of us as your cybersecurity specialists on call – always ready to respond while your IT team focuses on critical day-to-day operations.
The Patient Data Protection Act (PDSG) applies to all healthcare institutions in Germany, including hospitals, doctors, health insurance providers, and pharmacies that use the telematics infrastructure to process patient data which poses a new security risk.

Here’s how a Central Hospital leveraged NovaMDR to revolutionize their cybersecurity infrastructure and secure their patient data.
The Challenge
This Central Hospital was confronted with escalating cyber threats that endangered patient confidentiality and disrupted critical services. Their IT security team was on a tight schedule and bandwidth already and could no longer rely on traditional end point protection for their defenses.
The Solution
With the aid of cutting-edge technologies like machine learning and AI, NovaMDR analyzes millions of client and network activities every minute and sends alarms and potential incident information to ForeNova’s own Security Operation Center (SOC).
“To be honest, we wouldn’t have the personnel resources & expertise to handle all alarms & incidents. We need ForeNova’s security analysts to guide us on what to do after they report an incident to us. They have the experience in handling cybersecurity attacks for many years, and that experience is important against more and more mature cyber criminals.” – German Hospital IT Director
