London, England– September 4th, 2019—Imprivata®, the healthcare IT security company, is partnering with global healthcare ICT provider Ascom to give clinicians speedy, secure access to patient and clinical data, via ‘tap and go’ technology.
Proven ROI, innovation, early adoption and clinical excellence celebrated by Imprivata and its customers
London, England— Imprivata®, the healthcare IT security company, recognised the achievements of its UK customers with a range of awards announced at an impressive all-day HealthCon event and ceremony held at BMA House in Central London.
Over the weekend, the Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, announced investment of £40m to support projects aimed at easing the barriers to patient care due to the administrative burden on staff navigating slow login times. It’s long overdue that this challenge has been recognised by Central Government and given national prominence as it is something that we at Imprivata are exceptionally passionate about.
SLOW LOGINS STILL A TOP FRUSTRATION
New version of Imprivata OneSign® delivers secure, transparent access to on-prem and cloud applications to support hybrid environments in healthcare organisations
In today’s compliance and regulation driven world, managing who has access to sensitive patient records is a thorny issue. Too much security and clinicians can’t get to the information they require to do their job. They waste valuable time trying to access systems, or they develop workarounds to circumvent security, just to get the job done. We all know what we mean here – smartcards left in readers, shared login details, sticky notes with passwords written on. It’s the stuff of compliance teams’ nightmares.
SSO – the doorway to enhanced value
As the current global pandemic has proven, emergencies bring out the very best in most people, and sadly, the worst in a tiny minority. I’m talking about the proliferation of COVID-19 related phishing scams targeted at a more vulnerable than usual public, cyber-attacks against hospitals and testing labs, and even the World Health Organisation has been hit.
Every now and again a brilliant idea comes along and we all think, why didn’t I do that? Just about everyone has an old mobile phone (or several!) gathering dust in a desk drawer somewhere. We keep them for emergencies, but then never actually use them. We could sell them on eBay, if they are in good enough condition, but we never quite get around to it.
Here's what one tech company did to improve people’s lives and how we at Imprivata got involved.
