The Urgent/11 threat was announced shortly after Medigate was implemented at Torrance Memorial. Torrance Memorial’s IT security and biomed staff had a limited amount of time using the Medigate platform to guide their remediation efforts and little collaborative history dealing with the cross-device complexities presented by Urgent/11.
Torrance Memorial relied on Medigate data to expedite its inventory risk assessment relative to Urgent/11. While Urgent/11 proved to be a non-issue for Torrance Memorial, “the point is, we knew,” said Todd Felker, Torrance Memorial’s information security officer.
