Rubrik and MEDITECH Launch Strategic Collaboration to Protect Healthcare Data from Cyber Threats

Rubrik,  the Security and AI Operations Company, and MEDITECH,  a leading enterprise health record (EHR) platform provider, announced a strategic collaboration to offer native cyber resilience to MEDITECH self-hosted cloud and on-premises solutions. Rubrik will enable MEDITECH Expanse healthcare providers the option to accelerate cloud adoption with confidence, and give on-premises operators the benefits of cyber resilience from Rubrik Security Cloud.

The FBI reports that the healthcare industry is a top target for ransomware and cyber attacks. Rubrik’s collaboration with MEDITECH provides a cloud-based solution to keep hospital operations running and patient care uninterrupted, regardless of where their data lives.

“We are excited to certify Rubrik Security Cloud and give our customers more choice and flexibility when securing their critical data. This collaboration responds directly to customer interest in Rubrik’s technical capabilities and established presence in the data security space.”

– Sean Benton, Director of Computer Scientists, MEDITECH

The Rubrik Security Cloud integration will ensure that the organizations’ most critical data is immutable and rapidly recoverable during a cyber incident so that healthcare organizations can maintain continuity of care. For both self-hosted cloud and the installed base of on-premises health systems, Rubrik helps MEDITECH customers recover quickly and diminish financial and operational risks of downtime during a cyber event.

“Rubrik and MEDITECH equip healthcare organizations with a vital cyber resilience component for ensuring optimal patient outcomes. The goal of protecting patient care and speeding the recovery of systems and data has never been more significant. Rubrik Security Cloud offers healthcare leaders the assurance that they can recover critical applications from a cyber event within days instead of weeks.”

– Josh Howell, Healthcare Chief Technology Officer, Rubrik

Securing the Future of Digital Health

The integration of Rubrik Security Cloud with MEDITECH Expanse is managed through a unified Rubrik Security Cloud control plane, enabling consistent policy enforcement, threat detection, and recovery orchestration across the MEDITECH estate, including:

• Immutable Protection: Ensures patient data is quickly recoverable during a cyber incident. Immutability prevents encryption, deletion, or alteration even when adversaries gain elevated access.
• Native Threat Detection: Continuously monitors risks and investigates threats while finding the last known clean copy of data.
• Data Recovery: Contains threats by quarantining malware and restricting user access to support safer recovery.
• Data Archival: Leverages cloud storage for long-term, secure data retention.
