    I’m excited to join Imprivata at a time where healthcare IT, patient data security and clinician workflow efficiencies are front and center in boardrooms and nurses' stations across the country’s healthcare institutions. With more than 500 hospitals on the customer roster, one million healthcare users and strategic relationships with all of the popular HIS vendors, Imprivata has built a strong foundation that was very attractive for me to join and bring my experiences. Imprivata’s healthcare pedigree enables us to focus on delivering practical innovations for solving real-world problems surrounding simplifying and securing user access in hospital environments.
