Securing the Clinical Network from the Hospital to the Home and the Cloud with VMware and GE Healthcare
October 20, 2021: Today we are talking to Anand Srinivas, Office of the CTO, Service Provider Edge Business Unit at VMware and Paul Jones, Global Director of Product Management for Network and Security Solution at GE Healthcare. How can we secure clinical networks both in the hospital and as we expand beyond the four walls and into the cloud? How are clinical devices connected, tracked, managed, secured, and monitored today? What challenges does that create for health systems? The solutions VMWare and GE Healthcare provide are GE Healthcare – Mural Virtual Care, OnWatch Network Edge, GE Healthcare – OnWatch Network Performance and VMware SASE. When we look at these solutions, what elements have to be addressed? With a multitude of medical devices operating, it gets really challenging to have visibility and keep the healthcare environment holistic and focused.
