Who should use Guardian?

Guardian is ideal for medical device manufacturers who need to:

You need Guardian if you have:

  • Devices with technical constraints, including limited connectivity, memory, or processing power (e.g., pacemakers, insulin pumps, surgical instruments)

  • Legacy systems that can't be easily modified

  • Multiple devices that need to communicate securely

  • Limited resources for managing PKI infrastructure

  • Need to meet FDA cybersecurity requirements

Common use cases:

  • Eliminate security vulnerabilities in device-to-device communication

  • Streamline FDA compliance with automated reporting and documentation

  • Establish trusted connections to cloud services

  • Implement zero-trust security architectures

  • Manage cryptographic keys throughout device lifecycle

Teams

All of your teams benefit from using Guardian, as in these example initiatives.

  • Product security engineers: Implementing zero-trust architectures.

  • Software developers: Integrating security with minimal code changes.

  • Product owners: Planning compliant security implementations

  • Manufacturing teams: Implementing and streamlining device provisioning workflows

Role and industry-specific solutions

No matter your role, Guardian has you covered.

Healthcare Delivery Organizations (HDOs)

  • Inventory management: Automatically detect and authenticate connected medical devices.

  • Vulnerability assessment: Identify devices with security weaknesses.

  • Segmentation enforcement: Ensure devices only connect to authorized systems.

Medical device manufacturers (MDMs)

  • FDA premarket requirements: Meet FDA cybersecurity documentation requirements with automated reporting.

  • Secure design practices: Build security into new devices from inception.

  • Legacy device management: Secure already-cleared products without code modification.

Third-party service providers

  • Safe security updates in the field: Simplified safe security updates by technicians

  • Remote monitoring: Establish secure connections for remote service capabilities

  • Security validation: Verify security measures without disrupting device operation
