ITHealth provides proven and trusted cyber security and access management solutions to public sector organisations. Whether it’s supplying fast, reliable and secure access for mobile workers, or finding effective ways to reduce threats whilst improving productivity, our experience and expertise means ITHealth can deliver the right solution for the right price every time. As well as partnering with leading cyber security vendors, we develop some of our own solutions in-house. Most recently, ITHealth has developed an Assurance Dashboard Solution which is providing IT teams with greater visibility of their networks and associated vulnerabilities to ensure they always stay fully assured. Already deployed at over 50 NHS organisations, the Assurance Dashboard provides a single pane of glass to a holistic, real-time view of the cyber security and digital compliance of your entire IT estate. It negates the use of individual products to achieve the same result and makes risks easier to visualise, prioritise, remediate and report on. With feedback including: ‘it’s the best reporting tool that I have seen’ and ‘it presents a picture of the network and systems as they really are’, ITHealth are keen to show you a demonstration and explain how it can help your public sector organisation.
