Top Security Threats Facing Healthcare Organizations
PHI Exposure and Theft
Authentication, access, and injection flaws leak PHI data
- Unencrypted PHI enables large-scale data theft
- Exposed records drive identity fraud risks
Account Takeover
Weak MFA enables unauthorized PHI misuse

“I was impressed at how thorough the test plan was, and how "deep" some of the issues were that their testing uncovered. Also, the onboarding process was simple and painless: they were able to articulate exactly what they needed from us, and showed a clear understanding of the product they would be testing during our initial demo”

Frequently Asked Questions
How does pentesting help with HIPAA without being a certification?
Pentesting provides evidence that your safeguards work. Findings and retest results support HIPAA risk analysis and remediation, strengthening security attestations during audits and procurement.
Can you assess patient portal security without disrupting care?
We prefer testing on staging or UAT environments. Risky actions are coordinated, throttled, and safety-checked so evidence is useful without impacting availability or patient access.
How do you protect PHI during testing?
Testing on staging or UAT environments solves that problem since these environments usually don’t contain PHI. If need be, we can sign your Business Associate Agreement (BAA).
What deliverables will our teams receive?
Engineer-ready findings with impact, steps to reproduce, evidence, and remediation. Executive summaries and compliance mappings help leadership, auditors, and hospital buyers make faster decisions.
Do you test mobile apps and telehealth workflows?
Yes. We assess authentication, session handling, TLS pinning, certificate validation, and API interactions for patient and clinician apps, including recording and media paths in telehealth.
