Cybersecurity for Healthcare

Healthcare organisations hold the most sensitive personal data โ€” yet many remain under-protected. Crewtec helps hospitals, diagnostic labs, health-tech companies, and pharmaceutical firms secure patient records, meet NABH information security requirements, and recover rapidly from ransomware attacks that increasingly target Indian healthcare.

Key Security Challenges in Healthcare

Industry-specific threats and compliance gaps that our consultants see repeatedly.

Ransomware Targeting Hospital Systems

Indian hospitals have suffered multiple ransomware attacks that paralysed HIS, PACS, and billing systems for days. Incident response and business continuity planning are critical.

Patient Data Confidentiality

Electronic health records, pathology reports, and billing data are highly valuable to cybercriminals. India's DPDPA 2023 creates legal obligations for healthcare data protection.

Connected Medical Device Security

IoT-connected medical devices (infusion pumps, imaging systems, monitoring equipment) often run outdated firmware and create unmanaged attack surfaces.

Third-Party Health-Tech Integrations

Telemedicine platforms, diagnostic lab integrations, and insurance APIs introduce third-party risk that must be managed through vendor security assessments.

Recommended Services for Healthcare

Services we typically deploy for Healthcare organisations, based on regulatory requirements and risk profile.
