Digital transformation in healthcare demands a new approach to security

Healthcare is now one of the most digitalized sectors — and also one of the most targeted. Electronic health records, telemedicine, interoperability, and integrations with health insurers create a dynamic yet highly vulnerable ecosystem.

Increasing use of AI in diagnostics and telemedicine

Growing data exchange between APIs and hospital systems

Stricter regulatory requirements focused on LGPD, HIPAA, and ISO 27001

Brazil leads the digital health sector in Latin America, with 64.8% of all healthtech startups

Security that protects data and accelerates healthcare innovation

We combine technology, intelligence, and consulting to turn vulnerabilities into trust and continuous compliance.

Protection of sensitive patient data

Healthtechs work with highly sensitive information: electronic health records, clinical history, exams, prescriptions, biometrics, and financial data.
This information flows through multiple systems (EHR/EMR, hospital ERPs, lab APIs, telemedicine platforms, insurers, and medical devices).
A single vulnerability can expose an entire care journey, enable improper correlation of clinical records, or compromise critical integrations.

How we help reduce risks that impact patient privacy

AppSec Manager

Centralizes findings from clinical apps, APIs, and ERPs; prioritizes by criticality; and maintains history and evidence for audits.

Vuln Intelligence

Enriches findings with global data (CVE, CWE) and contextual technical insights, highlighting what truly threatens patient data.

Pentest

Validates your attack surface: tests medical APIs, EMRs, telemedicine platforms, portals, and hospital integrations.

Direct impact on your operation

Fewer vulnerabilities exposing sensitive data

Prioritization of what affects privacy and regulatory compliance

Continuous evidence for LGPD, HIPAA, and internal audits

Security in API and partner integrations

The healthcare ecosystem is highly interconnected: telemedicine, labs, insurers, hospitals, medical devices, digital prescription systems, and diagnostic platforms exchange clinical data in real time. This flow happens through FHIR/HL7 APIs, proprietary connectors, hospital ERP integrations, exam gateways, and EHR platforms.

How we secure every point of the integration chain

Threat Modeling

Maps risks before implementation, analyzing clinical workflows, sensitive attributes, permissions between systems, and FHIR/HL7 integrations to identify attack scenarios specific to healthcare.

Supply Chain

Analyzes dependencies, libraries, containers, and SBOMs used in integrations. Detects vulnerable components in medical connectors, exam gateways, and partner SDKs.

Vendor Assessment

Evaluates suppliers under technical and regulatory criteria. Reviews clinical APIs, development practices, authentication mechanisms, and compliance with LGPD, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and PCI.

Impact on clinical and digital operations

Risks identified before integrations go live

Reduced exposure from partners, external APIs, and SDKs

Continuous monitoring of the software supply chain and integration components

Continuous compliance with regulations and audits

Healthcare companies handle extremely sensitive data — clinical, personal, financial, and operational. To operate safely, they must maintain ongoing adherence to regulations such as LGPD, HIPAA, ISO 27001, ANVISA RDCs, and PCI DSS when processing payments. This requires updated evidence, traceability of fixes, access control, event logs, policy reviews, and continuous monitoring.

How we bring predictability and governance to compliance

Gap Analysis

Compares policies, clinical processes, technical controls, access flows, and data handling requirements with regulatory standards. Identifies exactly where the gaps are for LGPD, HIPAA, ISO, and PCI.

AppSec Manager

Centralizes evidence, fix history, vulnerability logs, timelines, and risk metrics. Supports audits with full traceability — without spreadsheets or manual data collection.

PCI Consulting

For healthtechs processing payments (subscriptions, digital clinics, plans, marketplaces), we guide PCI DSS compliance: scoping, controls, secure storage, and technical requirements.

Direct impact on governance and compliance

Faster audits with organized, traceable information

Lower risk of regulatory non-compliance

Continuously documented and monitored technical controls

Team enablement and technical support

Healthtechs often operate with lean engineering and security teams responsible for critical systems: EMRs, telemedicine, FHIR/HL7 integrations, connected medical devices, and clinical management platforms. These environments require fast, technically sound decisions — often beyond the time or seniority available internally.

How we strengthen your team to handle critical systems securely

AppSec Journey

Maps knowledge gaps (API security, strong authentication, cryptography, input validation, FHIR/HL7 risks).

Builds personalized training paths, focusing on security applied to code and clinical workflows.

AppSec Squads

Conviso experts work as an extension of your engineering team:

Support technical decisions;

Review risks in new clinical features;

Guide secure fixes;

Help structure AppSec processes aligned to daily operations.

Impact on daily operations

More mature teams capable of secure decision-making

Fewer recurring failures in APIs and clinical integrations

A more stable, predictable AppSec operation integrated with development

Security validation for AI solutions in healthcare

AI models in healthcare operate on extremely sensitive data — imaging, diagnostics, vital signs, clinical notes, demographics, behavioral patterns. These pipelines typically involve ingestion, preprocessing, training, inference, and storage across multiple data sources.

How we secure every stage of the AI pipeline

Threat Modeling

Maps risks from pipeline architecture:

Ingestion, preprocessing, clinical validations, FHIR/HL7 flows, classification/triage models, inference endpoints, and ERP integrations.

Identifies scenarios such as dataset manipulation, data leakage, and excessive permissions.

Pentest

Tests APIs and endpoints exposing AI models, checking:

Input validation;

Inference logic;

Improper data exposure;

Adversarial attack risks;

Manipulation of clinical results;

Security of training environments.

AppSec Manager

Centralizes all findings from AI pipeline tests, maintains risk metrics, fix history, and traceability — ensuring continuous improvement.

Direct impact on clinical and digital operations

Security from architecture, not only at the model level

Reduced risks across the entire AI pipeline

Lower exposure to data leakage and adversarial manipulation

Protection of transactions and payment data

Healthtechs process multiple financial flows: platform subscriptions, telemedicine payments, patient–doctor transactions, recurring billing, medical marketplaces, and insurer integrations. These flows involve payment data, tokens, anti-fraud routines, gateways, and PSPs — all requiring PCI DSS compliance.

How we ensure security and compliance in healthcare payments

PCI Consulting

Evaluates the entire payment scope: apps, APIs, environments, processing flows, and integrations. Guides PCI DSS compliance on:

Environment segregation;

Encryption of sensitive data;

Tokenization;

Strong authentication;

Access control;

Logging and monitoring.

Vendor Assessment

Analyzes gateways, PSPs, integrators, and financial partners under technical and regulatory criteria.

Evaluates API security, authentication, data storage, and integration practices.

Gap Analysis

Identifies technical, operational, and policy gaps related to payment security.

Demonstrates exactly what needs to evolve to maintain compliance.

Direct impact on financial operations
