Turning Hospitals into Digital Fortresses with Omniac and STACKIT

Proactively protect patient care, identities, and critical hospital systems. With Omniac, hospitals can detect unauthorized access to confidential credentials and dangerous attack vectors before they turn into security incidents. STACKIT provides a robust foundation for modern cyber resilience in the healthcare sector.

Challenge: Hospitals Are Becoming Targets of Complex Cyberattacks

Hospitals are among the most sensitive digital infrastructures. Patient data, medical technology, administrative processes, and emergency care must remain available at all times. At the same time, the risk posed by phishing, identity theft, and ransomware is on the rise. People as the Weak Link: Stolen login credentials are often the entry point for attacks. Phishing, in particular, makes it easy for attackers to impersonate legitimate users and infiltrate hospital systems undetected.

Humans as a Vulnerability

Stolen login credentials are often the entry point for attacks. Phishing, in particular, makes it easy for attackers to impersonate legitimate users and infiltrate hospital systems unnoticed.

Invisible attack vectors

Hospital networks are complex. Hospital information systems (HIS), medical technology, end devices, and cloud systems are often closely interconnected. This creates attack vectors that are difficult to detect in day-to-day operations.

Significant regulatory pressure

Hospitals must not only address risks in the event of an emergency, but also proactively demonstrate that they identify, assess, and minimize risks to patient care.

Measurable Value: Preventing Critical Attacks Before They Occur

Cyber resilience means continuously identifying risks and reducing them in a targeted manner. Omniac on STACKIT helps hospitals implement security measures where they have the greatest impact.

  • Early Prevention: Omniac detects compromised identities before they are used for attacks and identifies which critical systems are accessible via these identities.
  • More efficient IT security: IT teams do not need to treat every vulnerability the same. They prioritize precisely those risks that are part of a dangerous attack path.
  • Protection of patient care: Critical areas such as operating room control, patient records, or emergency procedures can be specifically secured. This reduces the risk of hospital shutdowns caused by ransomware.
  • Demonstrable Compliance: Continuous monitoring and documented risk reduction help hospitals meet the requirements of KRITIS and NIS2.

Solution: Robust Cyber Resilience & Active Defense

The solution protects digital identities and enables the preventive analysis of attack vectors. Omniac continuously monitors whether hospital employees’ login credentials appear on the dark web. This allows you to detect compromised accounts early and secure them. In addition, the solution analyzes how an attacker might move through the hospital network if they gain access to a compromised account. 

This provides a clear picture of the situation: Which identities are at risk? Which systems would be accessible? Which measures block the most dangerous path to patient records, medical devices, or operating room infrastructure?

 This enables the IT department to take targeted action. Instead of working through long lists of vulnerabilities, it first addresses the risks that could cause the greatest harm to patient care.

Competitive Advantage: Proactively Securing Hospitals Against Ransomware

Strengthen your hospital’s IT with a security approach that doesn’t just react after an attack. With Omniac and STACKIT, you can create a resilient foundation for preventive cyber defense. 

  • Stop identity theft early: Omniac detects compromised credentials before attackers can exploit them.
  • Expose attack vectors: Identify early on how an attacker could gain access to sensitive systems from a seemingly non-critical entry point.
  • Prioritize measures strategically: IT teams close the most dangerous paths first, thereby maximizing protection even with limited resources.
  • Seamless implementation: The solution runs on STACKIT’s European cloud infrastructure, thereby supporting the protection of sensitive healthcare data.
  • Greater Care for Employees: Omniac can also protect employees’ private identities, thereby strengthening security awareness.
