Imprivata, a Leading Global Provider of Access Management Solutions, Expands into the Italian Market to Help Healthcare Organizations Improve Security without Slowing Productivity

Milan, Italy – 10 June 2026– Imprivata, a leading provider of access management solutions for healthcare and other mission-critical industries, today announced its expansion into Italy, bringing its healthcare-focused access management platform to hospitals, local health authorities, and private healthcare providers seeking to improve cybersecurity, clinician productivity, and patient care. Imprivata helps healthcare organizations provide fast, secure access to electronic health records (EHRs), clinical applications, shared workstations, mobile devices, and other critical systems while strengthening security and compliance.

Healthcare organizations across Italy continue to benefit from the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) investment, which has helped to accelerate priorities around digitalization, interoperability, cybersecurity, and new models of community-based care. As healthcare organizations accelerate digital transformation initiatives, they are simultaneously facing growing cybersecurity threats, workforce shortages, clinician burnout, and increasing regulatory requirements, including compliance with the European NIS2 normative.

Many healthcare organizations continue to struggle with slow logins, password fatigue, shared workstation workflows, fragmented identity systems, and growing cybersecurity risks. These challenges can reduce clinician productivity, increase IT support burdens, and divert valuable time away from patient care. As hospitals invest in new digital technologies and connected care models, ensuring clinicians have fast, secure, and seamless access to critical systems has become a strategic priority.

Imprivata addresses these access challenges with a comprehensive platform of identity security and access management solutions that includes single sign-on (SSO), multifactor authentication (MFA), privileged access management, risk-based authentication, and AI-powered analytics. These capabilities enable clinicians and healthcare staff to securely access the devices, applications, and information they need without compromising security or disrupting care delivery.

“Healthcare organizations cannot afford delays in access to critical systems,” said Fran Rosch, CEO of Imprivata. “Every second clinicians spend logging into applications is time taken away from patient care. As Italian healthcare providers continue their digital transformation journeys, Imprivata is committed to helping them deliver secure, frictionless access to the technology clinicians rely on every day, while strengthening cyber resilience and supporting compliance requirements.”

Supporting Italy’s healthcare transformation

Healthcare organizations continue to face increasing cybersecurity threats, workforce pressures, and growing demands for digital transformation. Regulations such as NIS2 have raised cybersecurity and operational resilience rules and constraints in Europe, including in Italy, where healthcare organizations are adapting to the national implementation of these requirements and to cybersecurity guidance issued by the Italian National Cybersecurity Agency (ACN). At the same time, healthcare leaders must ensure that security measures do not create barriers to care delivery.

In Italy, healthcare providers are working to modernize clinical workflows, expand digital services, and improve interoperability across care settings. However, inefficient access workflows can result in:

• Clinician frustration and burnout
• Shared credentials and other workarounds that undermine security
• Overburdened IT staff from increased credential reset calls
• Reduced productivity and time available for patient care

"Healthcare organizations across Italy are balancing important digital transformation goals with growing cybersecurity and operational efficiency, so for them, secure and seamless access is more and more a critical factor,” said Gilberto Bonutti, Regional Sales Manager & Head of Italy at Imprivata. “But this challenge touches many industries, such as manufacturing, where production continuity and operational technology security are mission-critical, and retail, where distributed workforces and point-of-sale systems demand agility, data protection, and robust access control. Our goal is to help organizations across all sectors strengthen security and compliance while enabling the workforce to focus on their core activities.”
