NETWORK SECURITY

Firewalls, segmentation, secure Wi-Fi and monitoring designed for environments where medical equipment, staff laptops, visiting consultants and guest devices all share the same building.

At a glance

  • Managed firewalls and secure remote access
  • Separate networks for clinical devices, staff and guests
  • Monitored, patched and reviewed regularly

Does this sound like you?

  • Guest Wi-Fi and clinical systems are sharing the same network
  • Nobody can say exactly what is connected to your network today
  • Your firewall has not been reviewed in years, and visiting consultants plug in their own devices

Sound familiar? A baseline is in Available, and full depth is part of our Secure tier.

WHY IT MATTERS

One weak device can reach everything

On a flat network, a single infected laptop or insecure device can reach every system. Good design limits the damage before it starts.

Firewalls are a core control

Properly configured firewalls are one of the five technical controls in Cyber Essentials, and insurers and clients ask about them.

Equipment you cannot always update

Imaging and diagnostic devices often cannot be patched freely, so isolating them protects everything else.

Visitors, guests and consultants

People bring their own devices into your buildings. Separate networks keep them away from patient data.

THE SERVICE

What is included

Managed firewalls

Configured, monitored and reviewed, rather than installed once and forgotten.

Network segmentation

Clinical devices, staff, guests and other equipment kept on separate networks.

Secure Wi-Fi and guest access

Staff and visitors connected safely, without opening a route to patient data.

Secure remote access

Consultants and staff working away from site connect safely to the systems they need.

Network hardware monitoring

Firewalls, routers, switches and wireless access points watched 24/7, with alerts on critical issues. Secure and Productive add remediation and preventative updating for firewalls, routers and switches.

Regular reviews

Rules, devices and firmware checked on a schedule, with changes explained in plain English.

IN PRACTICE

Built around how you actually work

Clinics with imaging and diagnostic equipment

Specialist devices isolated from the wider network, filling the gap clinical suppliers rarely cover.

Care homes

Resident and visitor Wi-Fi kept separate from staff and care systems, with consistent rules across every home.

Multi-site groups

The same security standards at every site, so one weaker location does not become the way in.

WHERE IT SITS IN PRICING

Which tier includes this?

A firewall and secure configuration baseline, plus 24/7 monitoring of your network hardware, is included from our Available tier, aligned to Cyber Essentials. Remediation and preventative updating, segmentation and deeper reviews are part of our Secure tier. This is part of the Resilient pillar of our service.

WHY ENABLESIT

What makes working with us different

Designed for clinical environments

We plan around equipment that cannot be updated freely and around buildings that never fully close.

Joined up with the rest of your security

Network, identity, devices and backup are managed together, not by suppliers who do not talk to each other.

Changes planned around your day

Work is scheduled around clinic hours and care rotas, with a straight answer on what is happening and when.

Before you ask

Questions we get asked

Almost always, yes. Guests and visitors should never share a network with clinical or patient systems.

We cannot patch what suppliers do not allow, but we can isolate it so a problem with one device does not spread. Supplier requirements are always respected.

Not automatically. We review it first and only recommend replacement if it is end-of-life or cannot be configured properly.

Firewalls are one of the five Cyber Essentials technical controls, covering how traffic is allowed in and out of your network and devices.

Planned work is scheduled around clinic hours and care rotas, with a straight answer on what is happening and when.

Yes. The platform fee includes 24/7 monitoring of your firewalls, routers, switches and wireless access points. Available alerts on critical issues. Secure and Productive add remediation and preventative updating for firewalls, routers and switches, and wireless access points stay monitored. The hardware itself is not included in the fee.
