Raising the Bar in IT Data SecurityRAPIDPoint® 500e Blood Gas System

Cybersecurity criminals are constantly seeking to harvest IDs and patient information to commit medical fraud or even compromise an entire healthcare IT infrastructure. Medical devices are acknowledged as one of the weakest entry points into hospital networks. RAPIDPoint 500e systems have built-in protections against threats from hackers. Robust, automated defenses help maintain and safeguard your institution's IT security, allowing you to focus on patients without worrying about device intrusion or data theft.
