The Cyber Risk Landscape in Medical
Healthcare is targeted because it blends high-value personal data, life-critical availability requirements, and complex ecosystems (EHR platforms, medical devices, third-party labs, cloud services, patient portals, and APIs). Threats typically concentrate in four areas:
1
Patient-facing attack surface
patient portals, telemedicine, mobile apps, appointment systems, exposed APIs
Clinical systems & device environments
EHR/EMR workflows, imaging systems, connected medical devices, lab systems
2
Identity & access pathways
privileged clinical/admin access, contractors, third-party vendors, shared accounts
3
Operational resilience
downtime risk, incident containment, ransomware recovery readiness, continuity of care
4
Security in healthcare cannot be generic. It must be tested like an attacker would, validated against control requirements, and maintained with clear ownership and ongoing oversight.
Compliance & Regulatory Requirements
We support certification and compliance from start to finish for standards commonly required in healthcare, including:
How We Secure Medical Organizations
Penetration Testing
Healthcare platforms need testing that mirrors real-world attacker behavior across systems that store PHI and keep care delivery running.
We deliver comprehensive penetration testing across:
- Patient portals and web applications (public-facing and internal)
- Mobile application testing (iOS & Android)
- Infrastructure penetration (internal and external networks)
- Cloud environment testing (AWS, Azure, GCP, and hybrid setups)
Compliance and Regulation
In healthcare, compliance is not paperwork, it’s proof. Proof that controls protect PHI, reduce clinical risk, and withstand audit scrutiny.
We supports compliance certification end-to-end, including:
- Gap analysis and risk mapping
- Policy and procedure development
- Evidence collection and audit readiness
- Remediation planning and execution support
- Coordination and guidance through certification
Medical organizations often need security leadership that translates technical risk into operational decisions, without slowing care delivery or innovation.
Our provides CISO-as-a-Service including:
- Strategic security planning
- Risk management
- Policy development
- Ongoing advisory and continuous improvement
CISO as a Service for Finance
Why Medical Teams Choose Hucheck
Healthcare-specific threat focus
We prioritize attack paths that lead to PHI exposure, fraud, identity misuse, and clinical disruption.
Compliance that holds up under scrutiny:
We support full-cycle readiness for frameworks commonly required in finance (ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, GDPR as relevant).
Testing that reflects reality:
Expert-led penetration testing across web, mobile, infrastructure, and cloud, scoped to your real exposure, not generic checklists.
Security leadership when you need it:
CISO-as-a-Service to define governance, risk ownership, and ongoing improvement, without the overhead of a full-time executive hire.
Results: measurable risk reduction, audit-ready compliance, and resilient medical operations.
