HOME > ENDPOINT CENTRAL FOR HEALTHCARE
From datacenter to point of care

Manage every endpoint without stressing over skill shortages

Health IT is feeling the heat—ransomware, rapid M&As, HISAA, HHS CPG and growing EHR access via mobile. And endpoints remain the weakest link in this chain. On top of this, IT teams see short-tenures and skill gaps. IT directors are under pressure to find product-agnostic talent that works with multiple client platform engineers, and intuitive products to onboard new staff quickly.

Endpoint Central is easily the intuitive platform on the endpoint management space. Empower system engineers of any skill level to manage and secure endpoints—patient iPhones, shift-worker iPads, clinical workstations, barcode scanners, and back-end server. So your team spends less time learning the product and focus on enabling clinical workflows and patient care and building cybersecurity programs. It’s easy to set up on your own. But if you need a hand, you'll never hear us say "Go to an external consultant". Our experts are always ready, offering implementation, and hands-on training through the first patching cycle— even if it means we’ve to come there to see it through personally!

      "We do our best to train clinicians to take pictures from within Haiku because it doesn't store anything on the device. But this doesn't prevent them from doing it. Previously, my biggest concern was not being able to wipe everything work related from their phone once they've permanently left the organization, and having that workspace container is great for that."

    • Visibility & security across diverse browsers to prevent ransomware entry on endpoints proactively

      • In most cases, a ransomware attack starts with an innocuous browser download, which could have been nipped in the bud. Classic case being a recent breach in 2024, that exposed 5.6M patient records.

        In June, Ascension reported that cybercriminals gained access to its systems after a worker accidentally downloaded a malicious file, and that personally identifiable and protected health information may have been exposed.

      • Here's how one of our customers locked down browser, one of the common entry point for ransomware attacks.

        “We adopted Browser Security Plus, an add-on for Endpoint Central to close a major visibility gap. Although we manage Edge and Chrome, we lacked control over unapproved extensions, unsafe sites, and certain file downloads that bypassed our EDR. Browser Security Plus now gives us the insights and compliance controls we needed, ensuring only approved extensions are used, monitoring potentially malicious websites, and restricting risky file downloads."

      • Employees storing notes in personal Google Drives
      • Blocking personal Gmail accounts would impact employees' bookmark storage
      solutions

      Solutions

      • Leadership buy-in: The IT director plans to create a detailed policy for approval by the chief patient health and quality officer.
      • Operational alignment: The help desk will write guides for employees on how to migrate their bookmarks to their work profile.
      • Technology enablement: IT will use Endpoint Central to remove personal Gmail accounts from all browsers.
    • Monitor web activity for litigable and forensic investigations

      Why is it done?

      Litigable investigations

      When a physician sues your company, have visibility into what they were searching for or what data they were exchanging on the web.

      Forensic investigations

      During a security incident, risk assessment partners want visibility into the web activity of all employees on that day.

      How was it done?

      With Endpoint Central

      “With Endpoint Central, I get to see at an end-user level what employees are doing, why, and what browsers they are leveraging, even for remote workers. I can also control the extensions that are being installed, which is ideal for me. People like to install random stuff that they shouldn't.”

      Director of IT security,

      Parasmus-based healthcare, New Jersey, U.S.

      Without Endpoint Central

      “Previously, I'd have to go in the back door into the users machine and download the temporary Google database on the LiteDB for browser history. I would reconstitute that browser history in my own view in SQLight Viewer. That's how I was able to document the browser history of that person.”

      Director of IT security,

    • Reducing time and complexity in EHR client app distribution

      Challenges

      • Client apps interacting with Epic's EHR needing special scripts during installation
      • Manually running the scripts on every machine using the Command Prompt

      Solution

      • With Endpoint Central, the company configured 11 post-deployment automations in sequence to customize software deployment, like changing registry keys, setting up the client to point to the server, and auto-populating desk icons.

      "Software deployment was a challenge when I was using KACE. Customizing deployments for applications like Imprivata and Citrix that interact with our Epic was crucial for me if we were going to switch from KACE. But Endpoint Central enables me to run 11 post-deployment scripts in sequence to customize software deployment, like changing registry keys, and setting-up the client to point to the server. This saves me a lot of time."
