CynergisTek announced the launching of its new Continuous Risk Monitoring Program (CRMP) and its first contract, a six-figure agreement with a Southeastern hospital. This three-year contract will provide continuous threat monitoring services, establish countermeasures to combat ransomware and malicious attacks, and meet cyberinsurance requirements that will ensure lower premiums. Small, rural healthcare providers have long been targets for bad actors preying on their limited cybersecurity budgets, outdated technologies, and minimal dedicated security resources. In 2021, the healthcare industry saw significant changes to cyber insurance requirements, including increases to premiums and decreases in coverage based on the risk that healthcare organizations present to their insurers due to immature cyber risk programs and heightened cyber threat.

CynergisTek has recognized the need for a partner to aid in addressing these challenges head on in a practical, cost-effective manner and is providing a combination of world-class cybersecurity technology solutions and services that include Multi-Factor Authentication, Endpoint Protection, Threat Alerting and Monitoring, Advanced Analytics, IoT, Privileged Access Management, Ransomware Readiness, and Continuous Security Validation in customizable bundles and preferred pricing. By developing a comprehensive, ongoing, fully managed program into one seamless service offering, CynergisTek can aid clients in developing a more secure environment, address evolving threats such as ransomware, and ultimately reduce overall risk exposure. By providing small, rural healthcare providers with access to the same levels of protection that have historically been seen in large enterprise organizations, hospitals are now armed with the tools and expertise required to protect themselves across the full threat landscape.

CynergisTek helps organizations with fewer resources develop a well-rounded cybersecurity program and strengthen their cybersecurity posture. Maintaining an active risk management program is vital to building resilience in healthcare organizations and the industry, which is a cornerstone of the CynergisTek mission.
