Securing devices that cannot run agents: 8 lessons from IXT and Illumio
Eight lessons from IXT and Illumio on securing IoT and OT devices that cannot run agents: patch limits, Zero Trust, visibility and lateral movement.
One SIM for medical devices, patient monitoring, and care infrastructure.
Connect hospitals, clinics, and home care devices with one global SIM, private routing, and Zero Trust-ready security. Reduce risk, simplify operations, and scale across regions without rework.
Built for real-time operations and growth.
Healthcare connectivity runs across hospitals, ambulances, care homes, and patient residences. Each location has different network conditions. Each device needs to stay online.
IXT connects your entire fleet with one SIM that works across 600+ networks in 190+ countries. No carrier switching between regions. No separate contracts per facility. One platform to see every device, every session, in real time.
Connectivity you depend on at every site.
These features address the operational and regulatory demands of connected healthcare. From secure data routing to real-time fleet management, everything is designed for devices where downtime has consequences.
Global SIM for any location
IXT Global SIM works out of the box anywhere. Manage your entire device fleet with one contract, one dashboard, and one point of control. Ship OEM devices globally without pre-provisioning regional SIMs.
Private network for patient data
With IXT SecureNet, health data and device communication stay off public internet routes. Private APN, VPN, and static IP options support GDPR compliance and reduce your data exposure surface.
Shared data pool across all devices
All your SIMs pull from one data pool. No need to predict usage per device or facility. Smarter use of data across your fleet, fewer interruptions from devices hitting individual caps.
Connectivity that keeps up with your care infrastructure.
From RPM gateways to hospital equipment and mobile diagnostic units, IXT connects medical devices, handles data securely, and scales as your deployment grows. Your team focuses on patient outcomes. We handle the connectivity.
Berlin based PIKK-Systems builds robust industrial-grade sensing solutions. One of their key products is a next-generation fall-detection, the G-Guard. A device designed to detect a person falling in a room, alerting the pre-set people or institutions instantly.
Remote patient monitoring
Connect wearables and home gateways to stream vitals in real time, trigger alerts, and support clinical decisions. Private networking keeps patient data off the public internet from device to platform.
Medical asset tracking
Locate critical equipment across hospitals, clinics, and care homes. Live telemetry and status updates reduce loss, improve utilisation, and give operations teams a single view of every connected asset.
Pharmacy and cold chain
Monitor temperature, humidity, and shock from warehouse to ward. Automated alerts and traceable logs protect medicines and vaccines, and support audit readiness for regulatory compliance.
Ambulance and community care
Give crews reliable connectivity for electronic patient records, tele-consults, and device telemetry en route and on scene. Multi-network SIM access means fewer dead zones between facilities.
