Challenges
Challenges in
healthcare
Hospitals and healthcare facilities must secure sensitive systems in a rapidly growing digital landscape. Four hurdles make privileged access particularly critical.
Cyberattacks & ransomware
Sensitive health data as an attractive target
Patient data is highly sought after. Unsecured remote access facilitates attacks and leads to costly ransomware incidents that disrupt care.
External Access: Granular, agentless, and without coordination chaos
Internal Access Management: Secure and simplify work from anywhere
Built for Zero Trust: Easily implement all building blocks such as Multi-Factor Authentication and Just-in-Time access
Always traceable: Automated compliance reporting, tamper-proof recordings, and audit trails
Privileged access is a primary entry point
Ransomware can paralyze hospital operations
Data breaches lead to heavy fines and loss of trust
External & BYOD
Many service providers, many devices
Medical device manufacturers and IT service providers require remote access to critical systems. Insecure authentication and BYOD increase the attack surface.
External Access: Granular, agentless, and without coordination chaos
Internal Access Management: Secure and simplify work from anywhere
Built for Zero Trust: Easily implement all building blocks such as Multi-Factor Authentication and Just-in-Time access
Always traceable: Automated compliance reporting, tamper-proof recordings, and audit trails
External access without comprehensive logging
Insecure or compromised devices (BYOD)
Lack of just-in-time access restrictions
Complex IT landscapes
Diverse systems, continuous operation
HIS, PACS, laboratory and medical technology must be secured without agents and without interrupting operations - around the clock.
External Access: Granular, agentless, and without coordination chaos
Internal Access Management: Secure and simplify work from anywhere
Built for Zero Trust: Easily implement all building blocks such as Multi-Factor Authentication and Just-in-Time access
Always traceable: Automated compliance reporting, tamper-proof recordings, and audit trails
Heterogeneous medical and IT systems
Agentless security without downtime
24/7 availability is a must
Regulations
Reliably meet GDPR, NIS-2, and B3S requirements
Access to patient data is subject to strict requirements. Inadequate auditing and monitoring lead to heavy fines and loss of reputation.

Why over 450 IT teams secure their systems with VISULOX
We use VISULOX as a gateway to secure our customer support environment. Through VISULOX, we establish a secure connection with our customers to assist them in implementing our products. VISULOX provides a secure method with key and video recording that meets the highest security and audit standards. Support is quick and personal.
VISULOX enables the management of information security through the privileged access control of users to various infrastructures with centralized management.
VISULOX works flawlessly, and the IT support is exceptionally reachable in emergencies. Moreover, the team also assists with other concerns, even if they are not directly related to VISULOX.
We can be sure that our R&D data is accessed exclusively by us. VISULOX gives us the assurance that external service providers are never 'unattended' and that no one can access critical information or, in the worst case, even share it.
Secure access to IT infrastructures can be presented very transparently. The system operates stably, even with over 1000 users. Our implementation of ISO 27001 is significantly supported, especially for large infrastructures.
VISULOX monitors service provider activities across servers – privileged multiple accounts are eliminated. Together with amitego, we have developed a transparent, auditable control system that precisely documents who did what and when.
Highly powerful, mature, and secure for privileged remote access by external service providers. First-class support and a forward-thinking development team at amitego. We are in close, ongoing contact with the vendor and can actively contribute to the product's evolution. Customer requests are addressed promptly.

FAQ
Antworten auf die häufigsten Fragen aus dem Gesundheitswesen.
What is Remote Privileged Access Management (Remote PAM) with VISULOX?
Remote Privileged Access Management (Remote PAM) controls and protects privileged access to IT systems from remote locations — by administrators, external service providers, or partners. VISULOX implements this approach consistently: access is managed centrally, granted on a time-limited basis, uniquely assigned to an individual, and fully documented. Direct connections to the target infrastructure are technically prevented. This ensures control, traceability, and security at all times.
How does VISULOX differ from classic VPN or PAM solutions?
Conventional VPN solutions grant broad network access without fine-grained control. Classic PAM solutions are often complex, costly, and designed primarily for internal users. VISULOX combines the advantages of both approaches: a gateway architecture without direct network access, time-limited just-in-time access, complete session recording, and an agentless architecture. The result: maximum control with minimal administrative effort — purpose-built for secure external access.
How does VISULOX support a Zero Trust strategy?
VISULOX implements Zero Trust consistently: no user has standing access rights — permissions are granted only when needed, based on the least-privilege principle (just-in-time access). Direct network connections are technically prevented through a protocol break. Every session is fully recorded and uniquely assigned to a single individual. This creates a zero-standing-privileges model that also securely integrates external service providers and partners.
Why does VISULOX have a lower total cost of ownership (TCO)?
VISULOX is ready to use within a few days — without complex implementation projects and without changes to endpoints. Its agentless architecture significantly reduces maintenance effort. Licensing by concurrent users avoids hidden costs. Together with integrated German-language support and the avoidance of costs from security incidents, VISULOX demonstrably reduces complexity and operating costs.
Is VISULOX suitable for enterprise environments?
Remote Privileged Access Management (Remote PAM) governs and secures privileged access to IT systems from remote locations — by administrators, external service providers, or partners. VISULOX implements this approach consistently: access is granted centrally, time-limited, uniquely assigned to an individual, and fully documented. Direct connections to the target infrastructure are technically prevented, ensuring control, traceability, and security at all times.
