The UK's largest ICS will be implementing Cynerio's full platform at 14 NHS Trusts to better protect patient data, minimise vulnerabilities, and reduce disruptions to care.

Cynerio's platform is designed to protect healthcare environments against threats to Internet of Things (IoT) and other connected devices.

Matt Connor, chief digital information officer at Liverpool Womens Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, said: ‘Cynerio delivered exactly what we needed: comprehensive visibility into all networked medical devices across our ICS trusts.

'Deployment was efficient, and the vendor's support was consistently responsive, helping us enhance our security posture and fortify our cybersecurity defences.'

Darrell Bailey, head of sales for Cynerio, added: 'We are extremely proud to have been chosen by Cheshire and Merseyside to defend all the care facilities in the ICS.

'Adopting best of breed technologies like Cynerio to be deployed at scale will allow them to continue to be a leader and innovator in the NHS.'
