Zingbox Named to Constellation ShortListTM for Medical Device Security

2019 AUG 22 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Hospital & Nursing Home Daily -- Zingbox, provider of the world’s most widely deployed IoT security solution, announced it was named to the Constellation ShortList™ for Medical Device Security in Q3 2019. The technology vendors and service providers included in the Constellation ShortList offer the key requirements for early adopters pursuing digital transformation initiatives.

Cyberattacks on Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and hospital networks are a real and growing threat. While stealthy theft of protected health information (PHI) remains a common tactic, many hackers are changing their aims to target disruption of services. Unfortunately, most connected medical devices cannot be protected via traditional IT security means, so healthcare providers find themselves at a severe disadvantage.

Zingbox IoT Guardian is a 100 percent cloud service designed to discover, secure and optimize IoT devices using advanced AI and machine learning technologies. Zingbox is trusted by over 300 hospitals across the United States to monitor and protect their connected medical devices. Zingbox analyzes over 1.6 petabytes of medical device data every day using patented machine learning algorithms for device discovery, profiling, security and performance optimization.

“At Zingbox we’ve pioneered AI security technologies that have helped hospitals dramatically improve their security posture and manage risk,” said Xu Zou, CEO and co-founder of Zingbox. “We are honored to be recognized by Constellation for Medical Device Security, this further validates our mission to protect healthcare organizations and patients from cyber-threats.”

“In our experience working on tens of thousands of vendor selections, we’ve learned that no two organizations have the same requirements. We cut through the clutter and marketing hype and present the top offerings in each of our coverage areas. These vendors have battle tested solutions that our analysts have vetted and approved,” said R “Ray” Wang, chairman and founder at Constellation Research.

Constellation Research advises leaders on leveraging disruptive technologies to achieve business model transformation. Products and services named to the Constellation ShortList meet the threshold criteria for this category as determined through client inquiries, partner conversations, customer references, vendor selection projects, market share and internal research. The portfolio is frequently updated every six months with the rapidly changing market conditions.
