Healthcare Penetration Testing
Protect Patient Data and Ensure Compliance
Healthcare organizations are among the most targeted sectors, and breaches here can have life-and-death consequences. Threat actors seek patient records rich with personally identifiable information (PII), insurance details, payment data, and medical histories that fetch a high price on the dark web. Even more critical, a single ransomware attack can shut down EMRs, delay surgeries, and disrupt patient care.
With tailored penetration testing, we help healthcare organizations:
1) Protect patient data across EHR/EMR systems, patient portals, and connected medical devices; 2) Prevent ransomware disruption by mapping real-world attack paths that could stop operations; 3) Safeguard clinicial uptime to ensure continuity of patient care and treatment delivery; 4) Harden authenticaion and access controls to reduce insider and privilege-based risks; and 5) Meet regulatory compliance across healthcare privacy and security standards such as:
HIPAA, PIPEDA/PHIPA, SOC 2, ITSG-33, NIST SP 800-115, ISO/IEC 27000/27799

Protect Patient Care from System Disruption.
Patient portals, telehealth apps, and scheduling platforms are now prime targets for healthcare breaches. Packetlabs’ Web Application Penetration Testing identifies vulnerabilities across web apps, APIs, and mobile platforms that providers rely on daily. Using a 95% manual methodology, we uncover flaws such as authentication bypass, insecure role-based access, or misconfigured APIs that could expose Protected Health Information (PHI)
The Impact: A single flaw in a patient-facing app can leak thousands of medical records, expose diagnostic images, or enable unauthorized account access. Web Application Penetration Testing ensures your critical healthcare applications remain secure, HIPAA-compliant, and resilient against modern threats.
