Case Study: Baptist Health strengthens IoT security and hardware visibility with Sepio

Baptist Health secures 2,500 licensed beds with Sepio

Baptist Health, a large healthcare system with nine hospitals and thousands of connected devices, faced a significant challenge in securing its vast IoT environment. Their CISO, Michael Erickson, emphasized the difficulty of maintaining a complete asset inventory and the risk posed by sophisticated attack tools that can impersonate benign devices. To address this, Baptist Health partnered with cybersecurity vendor Sepio to gain the necessary visibility.

Sepio's solution provided Baptist Health with 100% hardware-level visibility across its network, enabling the detection of unauthorized or impersonated devices that evade traditional security controls. By implementing Sepio's technology, the healthcare organization gained the ability to validate device identity at the physical layer, proactively mitigate risk, and build a secure foundation for its future IoT healthcare initiatives.
