Industry Solution · Healthcare
Hospitals, clinics, medical care centers and doctors' practices are prime targets for ransomware and data leak attacks. Patient data fetches high prices on the darknet — and downtime costs lives. Apascope monitors continuously without intervening in clinical systems.
Health data fetches up to €250 per record on the darknet — significantly more than credit card data.
Hospitals with 30,000 or more full inpatient cases per year are considered critical infrastructure and are subject to NIS2 with strict reporting obligations.
Medical devices often run on outdated systems. Apascope detects externally visible vulnerabilities without system access.
Suppliers of medical devices and IT service providers are frequent points of entry. Apascope also monitors your critical partners.
Apascope monitors darknet forums, leak databases and criminal marketplaces daily for data belonging to your facility — email addresses, credentials, internal documents. Early warning before attackers become active.
Our CIQ360 reports are structured for internal audits and evidence for authorities. The 24h reporting obligation for significant incidents is supported by automatic alerts.
Medical technology manufacturers, IT service providers and external labs: Apascope continuously monitors the security posture of your critical partners and reports any anomalies.
Apascope requires no access to your clinical systems, HIS or KIS. The analysis is based exclusively on publicly accessible and darknet data — without any risk to operations.
Case Study
The situation: A municipal hospital commissions a CIQ360 report. In a criminal forum, Apascope identifies active discussions about the credentials of one of the hospital's IT service providers.
The response: The hospital is informed immediately. The affected service provider access is temporarily blocked, credentials are renewed, and internal systems are checked.
The outcome: The planned ransomware attack is prevented. The facility fully meets its NIS2 documentation obligation.
Hospitals with 30,000 or more full inpatient cases are considered essential entities under NIS2. Medical practices with critical infrastructure may also be affected. Obligations: risk management, reporting obligations (24h/72h), supply chain security, training, documentation.
Apascope provides the technical basis for demonstrating continuous monitoring — a central NIS2 criterion. CIQ360 reports are auditable and structured for BSI evidence.
