Passive first, always
Clinical networks get monitored before they get touched. Nothing we deploy can take a ward offline, and we prove that before it goes in.
Healthcare is Europe’s most ransomware-targeted sector and among the least defended — legacy clinical systems that cannot be patched, medical devices nobody can take offline, and NIS2 obligations arriving on top of GDPR. European competition in this niche is genuinely low.
