1improve satisfaction levels and the relationship with the patient
 
2streamline communication and access to healthcare information and resources
                
3increase the efficiency and quality of procedures.
                

Thanks to the Internet of Things (IoT), network-connected medical devices can help maintain physical fitness, track the results of medical therapies and improve the quality of life in general, while paying the necessary attention to privacy and security.

The digitization of healthcare creates considerable benefits, but at the same time increases the exposure boundary to cyber-attacks on infrastructures.

Service interruptions, data and identity theft, cyber extortion are some of the new risks that the CISO (Chief Information Security Officers) are facing more and more often, and in more complex scenarios.

For this reason it is important to adopt a Cyber Security strategy that can implement both corporate security policies and effective protection against new threats.

Italtel pays great attention to the technologies applied to patient security. Italtel works alongside companies, government and telco operators to identify, develop and implement Cyber Security solutions, adapted to each specific need. Strong partnerships with leading vendors of the landscape of security (e.g. Cisco Systems, Arbor Networks, Infoblox, F5 and Radware) and valuable experience confirmed by successful projects, offer customers high quality and reliability guarantees.

The Italtel approach is oriented to the implementation of innovative solutions – including niche – that can, ultimately, be replicated on all the healthcare ecosystem structures.

These solutions are built with special care for the security of networks and information, thank to Encryption, Unique UserID and strong passwords, Role based access control, Managed Firewall, Antivirus/Malware, Proactive Monitoring…

In this context, Italtel has developed DoctorLINK, that allows continuous contact with the patient and control over the medical situation through communication systems based on text, voice and video, images and clinical data safely and with respect for patient privacy.
