Microsegmentation Challenges and Goals in Pharmaceutical and Healthcare Industries

Watch a technical presentation from Network Field Day 36 exploring how microsegmentation addresses critical cybersecurity challenges in manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and healthcare industries where IT and OT networks converge. Dive into the complexities of securing industrial control systems running on legacy operating systems while maintaining IEC 62443 compliance in manufacturing environments. Examine how pharmaceutical companies navigate FDA-regulated environments requiring strict access controls for GMP systems, quality control, and laboratory information management systems. Learn about healthcare institutions' struggles with IoMT device security and implementing microsegmentation while adhering to 405(d) HICP guidelines and HIPAA compliance. Discover how modern microsegmentation architectures enable policy enforcement at the network edge through continuous asset discovery and automated policy recommendations based on learned traffic patterns, all without requiring hardware upgrades or network redesign. Directors Dana Yanch and Piotr Kupisiewicz demonstrate how identity-based microsegmentation platforms can effectively secure critical operations while maintaining regulatory compliance across these regulated industries.
