Ransomware Solution Brief

NHS Cybersecurity in 2022

In 2017 a ransomware spread attack rapidly across networks, affecting over a third of English trusts and over 600 other NHS organisations.
The HSE also confirmed that confidential data from 520 patients had been leaked online. Unlike WannaCry, the HSE disruption was not a product of collateral damage caused by untargeted malware; it was a deliberate attack.
The use of technology is now, more than ever, critical for the delivery of successful patient care. However, as we become more digitally dependent, is the NHS at risk from not paying enough attention to cyber threats?

Securely Access Healthcare Data Across Your Remote Locations

Give your users secure access to healthcare data from anywhere.

Control who can access your data with Sophos Zero Trust Network Access, which puts identity at the center of your defense and constantly validates your users, devices, and policy compliance. Sophos ZTNA provides a transparent "just-works" experience for users and enables your IT team to get new users up and running quickly.

The unique integration of Sophos Endpoint and Sophos ZTNA allows them to share status and health information to automatically prevent compromised hosts from connecting to your networked resources, preventing threats from moving laterally and getting a foothold on your network.

Minimize the Risk of Supply Chain Attacks in Healthcare

Healthcare supply chains are vast and complex. A vulnerability in any of a supplier's networks can rapidly propagate to infect multiple suppliers and businesses. Sophos provides security technologies and services to help mitigate the risk of supply chain attacks.

Sophos Intercept X with XDR

Provides comprehensive defense in depth against threats that get in via third-party suppliers using AI, exploit prevention, behavioral protection, anti-ransomware, and more. Plus, powerful XDR functionality automatically identifies suspicious activity, prioritizes threat indicators, and quickly searches for potential threats across your endpoints and servers.

Sophos Managed Detection and Response (MDR)

Delivers expert threat hunting and remediation as a fully managed service. Our specialists work around the clock to proactively hunt for, validate, and remediate potential supply chain threats and security incidents on your behalf.

Sophos ZTNA

Granular access controls safeguard your organization against supply chain attacks that rely on supplier access to your systems. Sophos ZTNA only connects users to specific applications or systems – and not your entire network. It is a cloud-delivered solution that removes implicit trust by validating user identity, device health, and compliance before granting access to your resources.

Strengthening Cybersecurity for Pharmaceutical Organizations

The pharmaceutical sector is a top target for cybercriminals, as it holds data worth billions of dollars in the form of intellectual property, R&D, and patient and clinical trials information. Sophos addresses the sector's unique cybersecurity challenges that come from its reliance on third-party suppliers, IT/OT convergence, hybrid and multi-vendor clouds, and many other reasons.
