Cynerio Iot Series Yoyonline Raises $30M to Secure Mission-Critical Medical and IoT Devices
Cynerio Iot Series Yoyonline is the industry’s only one-stop shop Healthcare IoT cybersecurity platform covering every threat vector on connected medical devices, OT systems and unmanaged IT. The clinically-intelligent platform automates asset discovery and risk reduction to ensure patient safety, data integrity and operational continuity.
Clinically-Intelligent Toolbox
Cynerio Iot Series Yoyonline recently secured $30 million Series B funding and increased revenue 300% year over year. This funding will help the company accelerate development and growth of its clinically-intelligent toolbox, including Zero Trust solutions for preemptive and proactive asset management and forensics.
The cynerio iot series is a complete set of healthcare-focused security, asset management and forensics solutions. Developed with the help of some of the industry’s most innovative minds, the platform is built to protect health systems from COVID-19-inspired cyber-attacks while improving operational efficiency throughout the enterprise.
Promise of Protecting
Cynerio’s ioT security suite delivers on the promise of protecting a hospital’s plethora of devices, delivering the tools and insights necessary to detect and respond to a wide range of threats. The most compelling feature is Cynerio’s proprietary virtual segmentation engine, which ensures the smallest of hospitals can contain and micro-segment device threats while enabling patient care to continue as normal.
The Cynerio Iot Series Yoyonline platform is supported by a dedicated team of engineers and a robust partner ecosystem with the right mix of expertise to meet any hospital’s unique security needs. As Cynerio continues to scale and add new features, we look forward to helping hospitals tackle the toughest of healthcare challenges and delivering the most secure and reliable technology solution possible.
Comprehensive Inventory of Devices
Most IoT security solutions still focus on providing a comprehensive inventory of devices, perhaps with some data related to their potential risk. But when a device demonstrates malicious or suspicious behavior, you can’t simply spot it and say “we’ve got this”.
The solution Cynerio delivers goes above and beyond, detecting and responding to threats on your connected device footprint. Specifically, the IoT Attack Detection and Response for Healthcare module empowers hospitals to identify, contain and mitigate device threats so that patient health and service provision won’t be affect.
IoT Network Segmentation Sandbox
Combined with an IoT Network Segmentation Sandbox, this medical-first virtual segmentation engine allows hospitals to test potential configurations before executing them. This cuts the time needed to secure connected devices from more than a year to weeks, giving healthcare providers the confidence to deliver continuous medical services.
IoT-enabled asset management solutions empower businesses by establishing a connection between human capital and assets. Automated systems and process flows can increase work productivity, regulatory compliance, risk mitigation, and asset monitoring while enabling a centralized system for collecting all data in one place.
Operational Costs
IoT asset management solutions include a wide range of IoT sensors for tracking the status of assets such as temperature, humidity, and pressure. These devices are able to notify plant managers when asset operating parameters do not match with their expected values, thereby reducing their operational costs.
Healthcare Customers
Cynerio also provides its healthcare customers with a comprehensive security platform to identify and remediate threats against connected medical devices, OT systems and enterprise IoT assets. Led by infosec industry veteran Joel Silberman, Cynerio’s global partner program will provide MSPs, VARs and MSSPs servicing hospitals and healthcare systems with a clear path to revenue through robust marketing and sales support and expert-led education.
Cynerio recently secured $30 million in Series B funding led by ALIVE Israel HealthTech Fund, a pioneering HealthTech investment fund founded by former health system officials and veteran medtech entrepreneurs. Its existing investors, Elron, Accelmed and MTIP, are supporting the company as well.
Digital Forensics
IoT forensics can be define as a specialize form of digital forensics that examines traces on devices and networks connected to the internet. Whether it’s an on-site crime or cybercrime, forensic investigators can use these traces to help them with the investigation.
IoT devices have become an increasingly common source of forensic evidence in the past few years, and this has led to some questions about how to conduct a proper forensics analysis of these devices. The first challenge is that many IoT devices don’t store much information in their traces, which makes it difficult to retroactively collect network traffic.
Final Words:
In the study, we explored how traces on IoT devices could be extract and analyze using existing techniques. The traces we found on the devices included image thumbnails, fragments of camera streams, and event logs. These traces can provide investigators with valuable information about what happened, when, and who was in the device environment. They also can be used to attribute physical activity to a specific person.
