Video: Out-of-Band Management for Healthcare IT Network Compliance

In today’s healthcare environment, hospitals rely heavily on IT networks to power critical applications, patient care systems, and connected medical devices. With this reliance comes immense responsibility: ensuring that networks are secure, resilient, and compliant with stringent regulatory frameworks such as HIPAA, HITECH, and other healthcare-specific mandates. Out-of-Band (OOB) management provides IT teams with a secure, dedicated management channel that operates independently from the primary production network. When primary networks fail due to outages, misconfigurations, or cyberattacks, OOB ensures admins can still access critical infrastructure remotely, diagnose and remediate issues quickly, maintain logs and access records for compliance audits.
