Healthcare IoT security leader reinforces its industry commitment by creating a standards-driven approach to healthcare security operations maturity
Medigate by Claroty, healthcare’s leading clinical device data security and integration platform, announced the launch of its new Partner-Ready Operational Services (PROS) program. Developed to establish and drive security service standards for healthcare delivery organizations (HDOs), this announcement comes shortly after Medigate was acquired by Claroty, the security company for cyber-physical systems across industrial, healthcare, and enterprise environments.

Medigate PROS is a healthcare-specialized cyber-physical services program built to grow qualifying partner practices through skills development. It is based on Medigate’s proven security operations maturity roadmap, a trusted path that Medigate has developed partnering with HDOs at more than 1,000 facilities worldwide. Importantly, PROS is designed to ensure comprehensive security across all critical assets, including IoMT, operational technology (OT), and enterprise IoT – or the Extended IoT (XIoT). It represents a timely development for an industry that thrives on standards-based approaches and needs experts trained in program-based delivery.
First Health Advisory, Meditology, Pixel Health, and Protiviti have been named Medigate’s first PROS security service partners. The services they provide not only help HDOs take full advantage of Medigate, but also, the entire complement of its integration partnerships, including market leaders like Cisco, CrowdStrike, and ServiceNow. “Partnering with Medigate and becoming a certified ‘PRO’ makes perfect sense as HDO’s look for holistic solutions to this complex challenge, said Carter Groome, CEO at First Health Advisory. He continued: “Our clients benefit from proven security roadmaps and they know that we’re always up-to-speed on how to maximize the value of essential integrations and the best practices they enable.”

As a first-of-its-kind program, the mix of comments are notable: “The healthcare sector remains vulnerable as the threat environment grows increasingly complex and eCrime actors continue to find it to be a lucrative target. Our partnership with Medigate combines their deep understanding of the industry’s security needs with our industry-leading CrowdStrike Falcon platform to secure HDO’s against the evolving tactics of sophisticated threat actors,” said Drex DeFord, Executive Healthcare Strategist at CrowdStrike. “We commend Medigate on the PROS program and in driving security standards to protect the organizations that serve the critical needs of our society.”
“Medigate’s technology, systematic approach, and proven risk mitigation are exceptional, exceeding the most stringent cybersecurity standards,” said Michael Machulsky, Pixel Health’s EVP of Strategic Partnerships. “These capabilities coupled with PROS enable meaningful visibility across the healthcare enterprise, inclusive of the XIoT estate, driving unmatched clinical asset management and utilization efficiency.”
“There’s nothing else like it in the HDO sector,” said Jonathan Langer, COO of Claroty and Co-founder of Medigate. “Offering a standards-based curriculum that can validate our partners as certified experts is significant for our industry. Not only will this make the onboarding process for new customers more efficient, but it shows our current customers that we’re committed to the continuous improvement of services that will meet their needs over the long haul.”
