Behavioral healthcare leaders face many unique challenges when it comes to protecting technology and securing protected health information from cyber threats. The lack of cybersecurity talent paired with the reliance on medical Internet of Things (IoT) devices and vulnerable legacy systems makes behavioral healthcare a prime target for attackers. Recent cyberattacks have impacted patient data and medical devices and threatened patient care.

As a result, many security leaders in the behavioral healthcare industry are turning to managed detection and response (MDR) services to protect networks, endpoints, medical devices, and cloud services through real-time monitoring, detection, and response. Recognized by Gartner, Pondurance MDR is a proactive, 24/7 security service backed by authentic human intelligence. We believe that human attackers must be confronted by human defenders, and our elite cybersecurity specialists have over a decade of experience protecting behavioral healthcare organizations.

“Having used Pondurance at a previous organization, with positive results, I engaged them to provide security monitoring services when I was appointed CEO at Burrell. Pondurance has proven their worth as an avid and competent partner where the protection of our data is concerned. Knowing they are protecting our environment on a 24/7 basis gives me peace of mind, and it allows our team to focus more on our business serving clients.”
