Maccabi Healthcare expands cybersecurity with Cynerio’s advanced platform

Maccabi Healthcare Services has announced the expansion of its cybersecurity framework by implementing Cynerio’s advanced platform. After evaluating various cybersecurity solutions, the healthcare giant selected Cynerio’s platform for its comprehensive protection, specifically designed to safeguard medical devices and Internet of Things (IoT) systems from cyber threats.

Due to the increasing number of ransomware attacks targeting healthcare systems in Israel, Maccabi Healthcare Services has taken proactive steps to strengthen its cybersecurity defenses. By adopting Cynerio’s cutting-edge platform, Maccabi aims to protect patient data, maintain the continuity and availability of its healthcare services, and uphold its commitment to the highest standards of medical care and security.

Ransomware attacks have become a significant challenge for healthcare organizations worldwide, and Israeli institutions are no exception. With the integration of Cynerio’s advanced platform, Maccabi seeks to enhance its ability to provide continuous, safe, and high-quality healthcare services.

Kobi Katz, Deputy CEO and Head of the Technology Division at Maccabi Healthcare Services, emphasized the importance of this strategic move. He stated, “Healthcare-specific cybersecurity has advanced significantly over the past two years. After thorough evaluation, it was clear that Cynerio’s technology and team far surpass competitors in stopping ransomware attacks, protecting medical devices, and strengthening our ability to deliver uninterrupted, secure, and high-quality healthcare services.”

Cynerio, founded in Israel and now operating globally, is recognized as a leader in healthcare cybersecurity. The company’s innovative platform continuously monitors, detects, and addresses cyber threats, with a particular focus on the unique characteristics of medical devices and IoT systems used in healthcare. Cynerio was among the first to adopt Generative AI (GenAI) to enhance its technological capabilities, including accelerating network traffic analysis and product development. This swift and innovative adoption has positioned Cynerio as a notable example in the global healthcare industry, demonstrating the power of Generative AI.

Leon Lerman, Co-founder and CEO of Cynerio, commented on the collaboration with Maccabi, saying, “We are proud to have been chosen by the Maccabi Healthcare Services team after a thorough analysis of existing technologies. Their forward-thinking approach in adopting the best advanced technologies will serve as a model for the global healthcare community and significantly improve cybersecurity defenses in Israel’s healthcare system.”

Maccabi’s adoption of Cynerio’s platform represents a significant step toward ensuring the resilience of the healthcare system. This initiative reinforces the organization’s mission to provide the highest quality care while safeguarding patient data against emerging threats.
