New York IoT security firm Cynerio is helping Integra e-Quip, a provider of computerised maintenance management systems (CMMS), produce secure tools for the UK healthcare market.

The partnership combines the strengths of both companies to enhance device use and patch management, vendor tracking and preventative maintenance, as well as device discovery and CMMS reconciliation.

The collaboration addresses the growing need for robust security measures in the internet of medical things (IoMT) and IoT environments. With the proliferation of connected devices in healthcare, it has become imperative to ensure patient safety and protect critical infrastructure from cyber threats. The integration of e-Quip’s CMMS with Cynerio’s IoT security platform helps healthcare organisations mitigate risks and streamline their operations.

“We are thrilled to join forces with Integra e-Quip to deliver an unparalleled combination of CMMS and IoT security to the UK healthcare market,” said Doron Dreyer, vice president at Cynerio. “Our collaboration will enable healthcare providers to proactively manage their connected devices, identify vulnerabilities, and take proactive measures to safeguard patient safety. Together, we are revolutionising the way IoT security is approached in the healthcare industry.”

Dal Jdali, CEO at Integra e-Quip, added: “Integra e-Quip is dedicated to providing healthcare facilities with innovative and efficient CMMS. Our partnership with Cynerio reinforces our commitment to delivering the best-in-class tools for device utilisation, vendor tracking and preventative maintenance. By integrating IoT security into our offerings, we are enabling our customers to achieve a new level of operational excellence and security.”

At this week’s EBME Expo (June 28 and 29) in Coventry, UK, Integra e-Quip and Cynerio will offer a special promotion of free CMMS analysis. This analysis will assess the risk that IoMT and IoT devices pose to hospitals by cross-referencing their CMMS data with the latest intelligence from Cynerio’s implementations at hundreds of global facilities. The analysis will provide insights into device vulnerabilities, associated risks to patient safety and care, and actionable steps to remediate security issues.
