IGEL Technology for Healthcare
Secure, Simplified Access to Clinical Applications
Why Healthcare Organizations Are Turning to IGEL Technology
Healthcare organizations rely on fast, reliable, and secure access to electronic health record (EHR) systems and clinical applications. Traditional endpoints are failing to keep up ailed with security issues, higher costs and operational complexity.
IGEL Technology provides a simple, modern endpoint for healthcare IT that strengthens security and improves the clinician experience. By transforming traditional devices into centrally managed secure endpoints, IGEL enables healthcare organizations to deliver consistent, secure access to digital workspaces, EHR systems, and clinical applications from virtually any device.
IGEL Technology Strengthens Endpoint Security
Healthcare endpoints are frequent targets for ransomware and cyberattacks. An IGEL device mitigates these risks through the implementation of proactive security measures.
The IGEL operating system uses an immutable, read-only design that prevents unauthorized changes and limits the ability for malware or ransomware to execute on the endpoint.
Key security benefits include:
- Read-only operating system to prevent persistent malware
- Reduced endpoint attack surface
- No local patient data storage
- Support for Zero Trust security architectures
By eliminating common attack vectors, healthcare it organizations can significantly reduce the risk of endpoint-based breaches.
Simplify Endpoint Management with IGEL Technology
Managing thousands of endpoints across hospitals, clinics, and remote locations can be challenging for healthcare IT teams.
IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS) provides centralized management for all endpoints, allowing administrators to control policies, updates, configurations, and device settings from a single console.
This centralized management helps IT teams:
- Deploy new endpoints quickly
- Standardize configurations across facilities
- Apply updates and security policies globally
- Reduce troubleshooting and support overhead
Extend Hardware Lifecycles and Reduce Costs
Healthcare organizations often operate large fleets of endpoint devices across multiple facilities.
IGEL allows organizations to convert existing PCs, laptops, and thin clients into secure endpoints without replacing hardware. This approach extends device lifecycles and reduces capital expenditures.
Benefits include:
- Lower endpoint hardware costs
- Reduced operational overhead
- Less frequent device refresh cycles
- Lower energy consumption
IGEL deployments can reduce endpoint budgets significantly while improving sustainability and reducing electronic waste.
