Patient Data is Becoming More Mobile
On the clinical side, mobile technology facilitates internal communication and workflow efficiency while vastly improving patient care, outcomes, and reach. Critical patient data sits at physicians’ fingertips and they can diagnose and manage care for patients that do not have local access to medical services. Mobile technology has also revolutionized how patients receive medical care. Patients can now track sleeping patterns, consult with doctors, check records and test results, order prescriptions, and conduct multiple other medical activities—all from their mobile devices.

Healthcare Organizations Face Unique Cybersecurity Challenges
As mobile healthcare skyrocketed during the pandemic, hackers found new opportunities and targeted healthcare organizations.
- Cybersecurity breaches hit an all-time high in 2021 (source)
- 33% of third-party data breaches in 2021 targeted healthcare organizations (source)
- 81% of Telehealth Providers Are Concerned About Data Leakage (source)
- 71% of apps have at least one high-level vulnerability (source)
By industry, healthcare data breaches are the costliest, with the average cost increasing by $2 million to $9.42 million per incident, according to HIPAA Journal. Given the increasing and evolving use of mobile devices and mobile apps within healthcare settings and the severe consequences of a security compromise, it’s imperative that healthcare organizations prioritize mobile security as part of their overall cybersecurity strategy.
Protect Patient Data with the Leader in Mobile Security
Much like a doctor can diagnose an illness by analyzing the symptoms your body is exhibiting, Zimperium’s machine learning-engine detects both known and unknown threats by analyzing the behavior of mobile devices and mobile apps. By analyzing slight deviations to the operating system’s statistics, memory, CPU, and other system parameters, Zimperium can accurately identify zero-day attacks and trigger remediations.
Secure Mobile Devices Used by Practitioners
zIPS provides healthcare organizations with continuous, on-device mobile threat detection for Android, iOS, and Chromebook mobile devices against device, network, app, and phishing attacks. By detecting and remediating issues locally on the device without sending patient data to the cloud, zIPS protects patient privacy while keeping data secure.
Learn About Mobile Device SecuritySecure Data on Unknown Devices with Runtime App Self-Protection (RASP)
Enable your mobile healthcare app to detect risks on users’ devices, such as network attacks, interference from other apps, etc., and then take specific remediation, such as forcing a password reset, shutting down the app, etc., based on pre-configured settings.
Learn About RASPProtect Cryptographic Keys within mHealth Apps
Leverage white-box cryptography to protect keys within mHealth applications and support HIPAA specifications. Your keys cannot be extracted—even if the device itself has been breached.
Learn About Cryptographic Key ProtectionPrevent Mobile App Reverse Engineering & Tampering
Add tamper-resistance, anti-reverse engineering, and obfuscation characteristics to mobile apps, ensuring not strengthening HIPAA compliance, but also strong app-level protection against attacks.
