Compliance Without Compromise; Trusted No-Click Access for Securing Healthcare Workspaces

Compliance Without Compromise; Trusted No-Click Access for Securing Healthcare Workspaces

Healthcare organizations are under immense pressure. Staffing shortages have led to burnout among medical professionals. Rising costs of medical supplies, increased demand for quality care, an aging population, and chronic diseases further complicate the situation. As a result, these organizations must innovate swiftly while ensuring patient safety and satisfaction.

We all know how crucial it is for clinical staff to access applications quickly and securely. Many healthcare organizations today are focused on centralizing their endpoint infrastructure through the adoption of Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS), Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), and enterprise browser-based applications.

These organizations want easy access to essential applications without compromising security, productivity, or patient care quality. And they need more flexible and adaptable workflows as they transition applications like electronic health records (EHRs) to the cloud.

Effortless, secure, and convenient

Enter IGEL, Imprivata and Omnissa – partners in innovation, providing a robust solution designed specifically for healthcare environments.

By integrating IGEL OS with Imprivata through the IGEL Agent for Imprivata, healthcare organizations can utilize No Click AccessTM  to their Omnissa Horizon® desktops or apps. This streamlined authentication process leverages proximity card technology, allowing clinicians to access their virtual desktops and applications with a simple badge tap.

This integration not only helps to shorten login times but also bolsters compliance with important security regulations, like HIPAA and GDPR. As a result, healthcare professionals can spend more time focusing on patient care, which directly enhances service delivery and leads to better patient outcomes.

Moreover, the collaboration between IGEL, Imprivata, and Omnissa offers additional valuable benefits. By combining the Omnissa Horizon platform with IGEL OS, healthcare organizations can enhance workflow efficiency and security. This powerful combination facilitates rapid, secure access to patient data and clinical applications from any device, enabling seamless roaming clinical workflows essential in both inpatient and ambulatory services settings.

Safeguard data, improve efficiency, reduce complexity, and costs

Traditional methods of detection, assessment, and remediation are not effective. Instead, healthcare organizations must prioritize preventive security measures.

IGEL’s Preventive Security Model™ minimizes the risk of data breaches and supports Zero Trust initiatives by ensuring sensitive information is not stored on the endpoint. This isolation and centralized user profile management through Omnissa Horizon greatly enhances organizations’ security posture, which is crucial given today’s serious data breach concerns.

Furthermore, the lightweight and efficient nature of IGEL’s secure OS platform allows healthcare providers to utilize laptops, thin clients, and even zero clients without the burdensome overhead of traditional hardware.

This approach:

  • Reduces the cost of clinical workstations by 50-75% while bolstering security. IGEL OS operates in a read-only format with a small footprint, minimizing the risks associated with endpoint management and reducing the need for multiple security agents.
  • Removes complexities associated with endpoint management. With the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), managing these endpoints becomes a breeze, providing healthcare IT teams with the tools they need to oversee a large network of devices.

What’s next?

In today’s digital world, healthcare organizations have a wonderful opportunity to adopt solutions that not only fulfill their operational needs but also enrich the experiences for both patients and providers.

IGEL OS is built for SaaS, DaaS, VDI and enterprise browsers.  By partnering with IGEL, Imprivata, and Omnissa, your organization can simplify workflows, strengthen data security, and enhance the user experience for your clinical staff.
