Healthcare
IAM for hospitals, clinics, and healthcare organizations
Overview
Healthcare faces a unique IAM paradox: patient data is 10-25x more valuable on the dark web than credit cards (Ponemon Institute), yet slow authentication in clinical settings can literally cost lives. Healthcare data breaches average $10.9M per incident—highest of any industry (IBM 2024). IAM must enable <2 second workstation access while maintain...

SailPoint💡 Why It Matters
Healthcare is the most breached industry for 13 consecutive years (IBM). A ransomware attack on a hospital can delay care and increase mortality rates.

The stakes are both financial ($10.9M per breach) and human (patient safety).
