Healthcare Security and Compliance
Protect your patients and your practice
The MTS Secure framework puts healthcare IT security at the center of everything we do.
MTS Managed Security Services Program (MSSP)
Rock-solid security and compliance practices
Security incidents are on the rise and threat actors continue to demonstrate their savviness with new tactics and techniques. When it comes to security and data protection, many organizations don’t have the security expertise to deal with complex and extensive data architectures and manage multiple security applications required to meet and match extensive cybersecurity threats. MTS’ Managed Security Services Program (MSSP) gives you the protection you need to keep your data secure and stay compliant.
Healthcare organizations of any size need a partner that has mature security knowledge, as well as effective tools to identify and secure assets. MTS stands ready to walk hand in hand with you on your security journey.
MANAGED DETECTION AND RESPONSE (MDR)
Approach today’s threat landscape with more rigor, more relevance, and more responsiveness
Customer endpoints are vulnerable – protect them!
With more assets being stored in the public cloud, remote users operating on uncontrolled networks, and increased data exchange among providers, the network perimeter has become difficult or (often) impossible to define. Cybercriminals are capitalizing on the opportunities within this new frontier with more intensity – we’ve all seen how security vulnerabilities consume healthcare headlines. The threat is real and their continued brazen attacks on healthcare makes navigating this complex landscape without boundaries perilous.
The MTS Managed Detection and Response (MDR) solution changes the cybersecurity landscape with an approach to today’s threat landscape that’s based on more rigor, more relevance, and more responsiveness.
Our comprehensive MDR offering includes:
- Managed Endpoint Protection and Response Services
- Continuous Threat Hunting
- 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC) to triage and investigate threats
- Immediate escalation to Cybersecurity Incident Response Team (CSIRT) if needed
MTS’ MDR service is an enterprise endpoint security managed service designed to help enterprise networks prevent, detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats. The technology is designed to hunt for threats, detect active adversaries, and react when an issue is found. In short, our MDR service provides you with the rock-solid protection you need to keep your data secure.
MTS Secure
A proven platform for healthcare security
Your IT services provider must have a demonstrable platform for security that addresses all points of vulnerability, from people and devices to applications, data, and networks. And while 100% security doesn’t exist – and wouldn’t be affordable if it did – you need a partner who can help you develop a security maturity strategy that is designed specifically for your situation, your budget, and your risks. There is no one-size-fits-all security plan, but there are proven technologies and approaches.
The MTS Secure Framework puts security at the center of everything we do. With this holistic approach, you get best-practice security products, technologies, and procedures to address vulnerabilities at every layer of your IT infrastructure.
Our end-to-end approach to healthcare security addresses the following:
Since we rely on technology today for patient care, it’s important to recognize that cybersecurity is now an element of patient care.
To ensure you have a solid security strategy, and a worst-case plan for incident response, you should understand and address all points of vulnerability in your practice and system.

Find Your Path to IT Security Maturity
Build a strong security posture appropriately over time
For healthcare organizations, achieving a confident IT security posture means chasing a wildly moving target. Cyberthreats are constantly evolving, the stakes of an attack keep rising, cyberinsurance costs are skyrocketing, and implementing an IT security model that lets you sleep at night keeps getting more complex.
The challenge is that there’s no one-and-done approach to IT security. Even if there was, most organizations would struggle to implement and pay for a huge one-time initiative. But you can follow a proven path to IT security maturity.
“Finding your path” lets you build your security posture appropriately over time, based on your organization’s risk factors and budget as well as compliance requirements, industry standards, and best practices.
Look to MTS to help you develop a security maturity strategy that is designed specifically for your situation, your budget, and your risks. We’ll be your partner every step of the way along your path to security maturity.
MTS is trusted by over 22,500 providers across the nation with ePHI records of over 18 million patients.
Our approach starts with a security strategy based on our deep healthcare expertise, including HIPAA compliance and disaster recovery/business continuity (DR/BC) planning.
And because we know that being prepared is an essential part of any security plan, MTS Secure is backed by our 24/7 security operations center (SOC) and incident response and forensic investigation teams.
Cloud hosting that is HITRUST certified is one of the most strategic and effective ways for healthcare organizations to gain confidence in their IT security posture. By including federal and state regulations, standards, and frameworks, and incorporating a risk-based approach, the HITRUST security framework helps organizations address risk through a comprehensive and flexible framework of prescriptive and scalable security controls.
Reduce the risk of a data breach with MTS Single Sign-On!
Use just one set of credentials to conveniently access all your applications
More than 80% of all security breaches are due to weak passwords, which could have been prevented with secure identities. Single Sign-On (SSO) is an authentication method that allows users to sign in to multiple, independent software systems using a single set of login credentials. With MTS SSO, users don’t have to remember logins for every application they use, reducing the risk of a data breach.
MTS Single Sign-On supports Zero Trust, HIPAA, and HITRUST compliance
No more memorizing multiple credentials or reusing passwords!
- Streamline Sign-In Experiences — provide superior sign-in experience by reducing or eliminating sign-in prompts.
- Increase Employee Productivity — simplify access and app discovery with a quick, centralized app-launching experience.
- Enhance Security — reduce the reuse of usernames and passwords across apps to help minimize the risk of data breaches. MTS SSO supports OpenID Connect, OAuth, and SAML standards
- Increase IT Efficiency — centralize user account management and automatically add or remove user access across apps based on group membership or roles.
MTS SENTINELONE DIRECT
Defend your entire technology stack against cyberpredators.
Leverage our enterprise, managed endpoint security platform to hunt, detect, prevent, investigate, and respond to advanced threats.
The cybersecurity threat landscape is rapidly evolving and expanding. As attack vectors multiply, from endpoints to networks to the cloud, many enterprises address each vector with a best-in-class solution to protect those specific vulnerabilities. However, these endpoint tools don’t connect the dots across the entire technology stack. As a result, security data is collected and analyzed in isolation, without any context or correlation, creating gaps in what security teams can see and detect. Plus, the manual investigation process can often be slow and cumbersome, causing security teams to fall behind in containing and remediating threats.
MTS SentinelOne Direct, unifies and extends detection and response capability across multiple security layers. This provides your security team with:
- Centralized end-to-end enterprise visibility
- Powerful analytics
- Automated response across the complete technology stack
MTS SentinelOneDirect gives customers unified and proactive security measures to defend the entire technology stack, making it easier for security analysts to identify and stop attacks in progress before they impact the business.
