Healthcare Is the #1 Target for Cyberattacks. We Make Sure Yours Is Not the Next Headline.

Ransomware shuts down hospitals. Phishing exposes millions of patient records. Medical devices become backdoors into your network. GCS provides cybersecurity built specifically for healthcare — because generic security does not stop healthcare-specific attacks.

Healthcare Ransomware Protection

Ransomware Hits Healthcare Hardest — We Stop It

Healthcare organizations cannot afford downtime. When ransomware locks an EMR, patient care stops. We deploy layered defenses that prevent ransomware from executing — and guarantee recovery without paying if it ever gets through.

AI Endpoint Detection

SentinelOne EDR/XDR on every clinical workstation and server — AI behavioral analysis catches ransomware before encryption begins and isolates the machine in milliseconds.

Autonomous response — no human delay

Email Security Gateway

Proofpoint blocks the #1 ransomware delivery vector — phishing emails, malicious attachments, and impersonation attacks targeting clinical and admin staff.

99.7% phishing block rate

Immutable Backup

If ransomware encrypts your EMR, we restore from immutable backups that attackers cannot touch. Full recovery in under 4 hours. Zero ransoms paid — ever.

4-hour recovery guarantee
Medical Device Security

Your Medical Devices Are Network Endpoints — We Secure Them Like It

Infusion pumps, imaging equipment, patient monitors, and diagnostic devices are increasingly connected to your network. Most were never designed with cybersecurity in mind. They run outdated operating systems, cannot be patched, and provide backdoor access to your clinical network if not properly isolated.

Network Segmentation

Medical devices placed on isolated VLANs — preventing compromised devices from reaching your EMR, patient records, or administrative systems

Device Inventory & Monitoring

Every connected medical device identified, cataloged, and monitored for anomalous network behavior — even devices that cannot run traditional security agents

Firewall Micro-Segmentation

FortiGate firewall rules restricting each device to only the network traffic it needs — blocking lateral movement even if a device is compromised

Vendor Access Controls

Restricted, monitored, and time-limited remote access for medical device vendors — no standing access, no unmonitored sessions

Insider Threat Prevention

Not Every Threat Comes From Outside Your Practice

Healthcare insider threats include curious employees snooping on celebrity or neighbor patient records, disgruntled staff exfiltrating data before leaving, and well-meaning employees falling for social engineering. We implement controls that detect and prevent all three.

Access Logging

Every patient record access logged with user ID, timestamp, and reason

Anomaly Detection

Alerts for unusual access — after-hours, bulk downloads, records outside care team

Minimum Necessary

Role-based access ensuring staff only see PHI required for their function

DLP Policies

Prevent PHI from being emailed, USB-copied, or uploaded to personal cloud

Offboarding Controls

Immediate access revocation when staff depart — zero residual access

Break-the-Glass Logging

Emergency access audited and reported — ensuring appropriate use only

Email Phishing Defense

Healthcare Phishing Attacks Are Sophisticated — Our Defense Is Better

Healthcare phishing is not generic spam. Attackers craft emails impersonating insurance companies, EMR vendors, lab results, and even fellow providers. They exploit the urgency and trust inherent in clinical communications. We stop them with AI-powered email security and ongoing staff training.

Proofpoint Email Security

AI-powered analysis of every inbound email — URL rewriting, attachment sandboxing, impersonation detection, and BEC prevention

Healthcare Phishing Simulations

Monthly simulated attacks using healthcare-specific scenarios — fake EMR alerts, insurance requests, lab results, and appointment confirmations

Auto-Enrollment Remediation

Staff who click simulated phishing are automatically enrolled in targeted training — not shamed, but educated with clinical-context scenarios

Security Incident Response for Healthcare

When a security incident hits a healthcare practice, the response involves HIPAA breach notification requirements, OCR reporting timelines, patient notification obligations, and malpractice insurance coordination. Generic incident response plans miss all of this.

Containment & Forensics

Isolate affected systems immediately while preserving forensic evidence. Determine scope — which systems, which PHI, which patients affected.

15-min response SLA

HIPAA Breach Assessment

Determine if the incident constitutes a HIPAA breach requiring OCR notification (60-day rule), state notification, and individual patient notification.

60-day OCR timeline managed

Recovery & Hardening

Restore systems from clean backups, close the vulnerability that was exploited, and implement additional controls to prevent recurrence.

4-hour recovery guarantee

How secure is your practice — really?

Our free healthcare cybersecurity assessment evaluates your ransomware defenses, medical device security, email protection, insider threat controls, and incident response readiness — and delivers a scored report showing exactly where you are protected and where you are exposed.

27 years. Zero healthcare breaches. Zero ransoms paid.
