Finding every connected device without disrupting care You can't protect what you can't see, so a complete inventory comes first.

The platform learns about devices from network traffic and from data sources the hospital already has, so nothing gets installed on a patient monitor, infusion pump, or imaging system. That matters because manufacturers limit what software can run on clinical devices, and many of them run operating systems that no longer get vendor support. Agent-based tools tend to miss most of them.

A good inventory covers IoT, OT, IoMT, and IT assets together. Clinical devices talk to workstations, servers, and building systems all day, so splitting them into separate lists leaves gaps. Deep packet inspection of clinical protocols such as DICOM and HL7 can reveal each device's type, manufacturer, model, operating system, and firmware version. Pulling in data from the CMMS, CMDB, NAC, and wireless controllers then fills in what traffic alone can't show and reconciles the records that clinical engineering and IT keep separately.
