Reducing Breaches and Building Resiliency in Healthcare IT Operations

Significant advances in telehealth services, Electronic Health Records (EHRs), and personalized medicine powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) are revolutionizing healthcare delivery. Supporting these innovations has also necessitated a shift in healthcare IT, resulting in the rapidly expanding scale and complexity of IT operations.

Security & Complexity

As the number of devices, users, and applications increases, so do the potential security vulnerabilities in your infrastructure.

Compliance & Collaboration

HIPAA compliance requires rigorous auditing, session recording, and secure data sharing across various departments and external partners.

Productivity & Scalability

Engineering teams require seamless access, automated workflows, and scalable tools that integrate with existing DevOps toolkits and processes.

For Security Teams

Mitigate Risk From Identity-Based Attacks

Teleport modernizes access control for healthcare organizations by leveraging cryptographic identity, zero trust principles, and ephemeral privileges. This approach eliminates credentials and standing privileges as potential attack vectors, ensuring robust security across your infrastructure. Teleport unifies identity and policy governance, allowing organizations to identify and address weak access patterns, remove outdated privileges, lock user accounts, and enforce stringent policies.

Identity Governance

Protect users, devices, and resources with identities verified by biometrics or hardware security modules (HSMs) and TPM monitors.

Zero Trust Authentication

Implement zero trust authentication and encryption for all access requests across your infrastructure to eliminate the need for VPNs and traditional network security.

Ephemeral Privileges

Ensure zero standing privileges for all infrastructure components, including servers, Kubernetes clusters, databases, and internal applications, by using secretless authentication and temporary authorizations for every connection.

For Engineering Teams

Enhance Engineering Productivity

Teleport simplifies access for healthcare engineering teams by dynamically refreshing all resources within a unified dashboard accessed through biometric authentication. This eliminates the need to remember disparate access paths and credentials. Workflow automation streamlines access requests, and engineering managers can easily onboard and offboard users, protecting productivity and ensuring secure operations.

Dynamic Access

Developers only need to authenticate with Teleport to access the healthcare infrastructure resources they are authorized for, eliminating the need to remember multiple access paths or credentials.

DevOps Friendly Tools

Engineering teams can manage privilege escalation requests through familiar tools like Slack, JIRA, and PagerDuty, and work directly with infrastructure using client tools such as kubectl.

Just-in-Time Access Requests

Approve or deny privilege escalation requests using flexible access workflows integrated with ChatOps, Slack, PagerDuty, or customized via the programmable API.

For Compliance Teams

Simplify Compliance Audits in Healthcare

Meeting compliance requirements like HIPAA, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 is streamlined with Teleport. It provides recorded logs of every infrastructure event, with the capability to export audit records to your preferred SIEM for further analysis, reducing the audit burden and ensuring comprehensive compliance.

Rich Audit Logs

Security logs are collected at the application level, providing detailed protocol-native context about what occurred and who was responsible. These logs can be exported to any SIEM or threat detection platform for further analysis.

Session Sharing & Moderation

Interactive sessions can include multiple simultaneous clients, with highly privileged sessions configured to always include a moderator to prevent a single client from being a point of failure.

Dual Authorization

Compliance frameworks like HIPAA and SOC 2 require highly privileged actions to be approved by multiple authorized team members. Teleport facilitates this dual authorization process, ensuring adherence to stringent compliance standards.
