Verified Artifacts, Safer Patient Care

Securing Healthcare’s Software Supply Chain

The software behind your EHR integrations, patient portals, and connected medical devices is part of your attack surface. Malicious packages and AI models are growing fast, and regulators expect you to show what shipped and where it came from. This guide explains how to move from assuming trust to verifying it, so security, engineering, and compliance teams can work from the same picture of what’s running in production.

What you’ll learn:

• Why healthcare is a prime target: the breach cost, detection time, and patient safety data behind the risk
• How four roles see supply chain risk differently: CISO, Platform Engineering, AppSec, and Regulatory & Quality, and how a shared view of your artifacts brings them together
• How to block risky packages and models at the point of entry, before they reach a developer’s machine
• How to focus on exploitable vulnerabilities, not the sheer volume of alerts
• How to govern AI models and agents like any other artifact, with provenance, scanning, and version control
• How to make compliance evidence a byproduct, with SBOMs (CycloneDX, SPDX) and VEX data generated from your builds and exportable on demand
• Where to start, with a practical plan based on where your exposure is greatest
