- Unified DDI for health care
Intelligent NetOps for health care
Modernize your complex network and meet regulatory requirements with centralized, automated, and secure network infrastructure.
Trusted by industry leaders
Health care service providers and organizations must meet demands to drive innovation that improves patient experience, protects data, and reduces costs. At the same time, the critical nature of health care services requires ensuring network compliance, security, and high availability. If the network goes down, it can result in lost revenue and endanger lives.
With the help of BlueCat’s solutions, you can modernize your complex network to deliver core services—namely DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (DDI)—plus observability and security—without skipping a beat.
A DDI solution
for health care
Network downtime in health care settings can be catastrophic, leading to revenue loss, brand damage, and even endangering lives. BlueCat is trusted by some of the world’s largest health care organizations to help keep their networks and devices reliably running 24/7.
Our network observability and intelligence solutions can help you ensure network performance and reliability, optimize performance, and strengthen security protocols. LiveNX is the most advanced network performance monitoring solution, giving you visibility across on-premises, SD-WAN, cloud, and hybrid networks—plus actionable insights in real time, proactive remediation for network and security i infrastructure, and flow and packet data to resolve even the most complex issues. LiveWire captures and analyzes packets to assist with network performance, giving you useful visualizations and an intuitive interface for obtaining information and insights.
BlueCat Integrity provides an industry-leading enterprise solution with seamless failover, ensuring your DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (IPAM) is highly available and resilient in the event of an outage. Or, BlueCat Micetro offers a fast and flexible software overlay for DDI visibility and control.
Health care providers and organizations must comply with strict regulations, such as HIPAA and GDPR, to ensure safety and security and protect the privacy of patient data. As a single source of truth, BlueCat’s Unified DDI platform and protective DNS solutions help ensure you have complete visibility and control for everything happening on your network—from the data center to the cloud—while meeting privacy regulations and security mandates.
The proliferation of IoT and IoMT devices in health care settings requires network infrastructure solutions that interoperate across various platforms and vendors. BlueCat’s Unified DDI platform integrates with the most common IT management and network automation tools, such as ServiceNow, Ansible, and Terraform.
Through APIs and direct network protocols, our network automation and integrations enable the automation of hundreds of thousands of changes each day, allowing you to scale faster and focus on patient care. We also have best-in-class network observability tools to keep your networks performing well (and help you quickly find the cause if they’re not).
And because we recognize that one size does not fit all, BlueCat solutions can also be customized to your specific automation needs with the help of our professional services team.
Health care organizations and service providers can be the targets of sophisticated cyberattacks. BlueCat’s security solutions utilize industry-leading thread feeds, policy-driven security rules to protect devices and networks at the DNS level, and advanced algorithms to detect threats like DNS tunneling or domain generation algorithms. BlueCat’s protective DNS solutions also integrate with your existing SIEM or SOAR solutions, giving your security teams the relevant data they need.
Health care services and organizations are moving to cloud-based solutions for improved scalability, flexibility, and reduced infrastructure costs. The risk of shadow IT makes it even more critical to maintain full visibility and control over what is happening on your hybrid and multicloud networks. BlueCat’s multicloud management solutions provide end-to-end visibility and optimization of cloud environments.
