Network Chemistry serves leading Healthcare providers of primary care and related insurance providers. The company's products are being used by numerous organizations to support their strategic initiatives to move towards a "paperless" model to reduce costs and simultaneously to improve care and customer support.
The Healthcare industry is rapidly adopting the use of wireless networking technology as mobility continues to play a vital role in the delivery of care and administration. This is especially true in hospital environments where instant access to data and remote expertise directly impacts the well being of patients and the quality of service they receive. However, Healthcare administration and IT staff face a difficult decision as they consider deploying wireless to decrease errors, improve patient care and efficiency and lower costs. They must decide whether the meaningful risks outweigh the significant benefits and ultimately whether or not to delay wireless deployment until security improves. Compounding the situation are the requirements imposed by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). To meet these needs, healthcare organizations deploy RFprotect Distributed and RFprotect Mobile to ensure the highest level of protection against wireless attacks a and misuse in their facilities.
Healthcare organizations also require a solution for rogue-device protection that can be easily deployed and cover the entire wired network in order to prevent the exposure of confidential data and critical assets. Rogue devices can include everything from unauthorized access points and unmanaged servers to other devices acting as access points known as rogue peers. The most common rogue peers are laptops with wired and wireless interfaces and bridging enabled. Network Chemistry Scanner, a wired-side vulnerability management appliance solves this challenge by classifying all network infrastructure, finding rogues and removing them from the network.
