WellSky continues to take significant steps forward in connecting every part of our health and community care solutions. Our commitment to data security is one of the driving forces putting WellSky amongst the top healthcare technology companies.
Safeguarding sensitive patient data and maintaining system availability is paramount. Recently, we implemented an innovative Web Application Firewall (WAF). This strategic move provides protection against malicious bots and bolsters our defense against external attack vectors while helping to ensure uninterrupted access across our healthcare platforms. The WAF’s advanced threat mitigation capabilities stand as a formidable barrier against a wide spectrum of threats, far beyond the OWASP Top Ten.
Well-known attack traffic patterns are automatically blocked with the WAF. All the traffic metadata is funneled into WellSky's SIEM platform to provide deeper insights into the timing and scale of attacks that might take place. This first line of defense not only safeguards patient data but also helps maintain the growing trust of healthcare professionals and patients alike.
By implementing WAF, we further ensure the security and availability of our solutions and data. WellSky aims for seamless access to our solutions with this extra security layer and without compromising performance. Our commitment to high availability remains at the forefront of our promises as we strengthen our security across our solution portfolio. As we continue to innovate and evolve, our clients know that their data remains secure, allowing them to focus on delivering the best possible care to patients.
