Malware and phishing analysis for healthcare and life sciences.
Care cannot pause for an investigation, and the systems most at risk are often the ones you cannot patch or put an agent on. Accurate verdicts your playbooks can act on, an analysis layer that works independently of the endpoint, and depth to hunt for what has not alerted yet.

01 / CONTEXT
What makes healthcare defense different
Healthcare is the most targeted sector for ransomware, and the average breach takes months to identify. Three conditions change what an analysis layer has to do.
CONTINUITY
Downtime is measured in delayed care
COVERAGE
Systems that cannot take an agent or a patch are still on the network
VALUE
Patient records and research IP are both targeted, and both leave
02 / CAPABILITIES
What VMRay provides healthcare security teams
Three capabilities behind the three outcomes above.
01 / AUTOMATION
Verdicts your playbooks can act on
A playbook can retrieve a file, submit it, and act on the answer without a human in the middle, but only if the answer is right. Accurate verdicts are what let a case close automatically instead of joining the queue.
Definitive verdicts: malicious, suspicious, or benign
Submissions tagged to your case ID for end-to-end traceability
Alerts when a verdict is reclassified after deeper analysis
Native integrations and REST API into EDR, SIEM, SOAR, and TIP
02 / DEFENSE IN DEPTH
Analysis that catches what endpoint tooling misses
Endpoint tools cover a great deal, and they are not foolproof. In an estate that includes connected clinical devices that cannot be patched or agented, an independent layer that observes what a file actually does is not redundancy. It is coverage.
Hypervisor-based analysis that malware cannot detect
Behavior observed rather than inferred from signature or reputation
Full execution chain, including multi-stage delivery
Verdict transparency: the specific factors behind every decision
03 / THREAT HUNTING
Depth to find what has not alerted yet
Attackers stage quietly before they act. Files written to public folders, drivers dropped into system directories, executables run out of archives or mounted media. Hunting those behaviors means analyzing samples that nothing has flagged.
MITRE ATT&CK TTP mapping against your detection coverage
High-confidence IOCs for retrospective hunting across the estate

03 / THE FLOW
How analysis fits into the flow
Samples arrive from across the stack. Verdicts and indicators return to every system that needs them.

FEATURED CUSTOMER STORY
How a top three US healthcare provider automated file threat hunting
FIG / DETECTION TO RESPONSE, WITHOUT A MANUAL STEP
The team wanted to catch files staged in locations attackers favor, before anything executed. A SIEM rule watches for suspicious file types created under the public user profile. When it fires, a SOAR playbook checks the host, retrieves the file from the endpoint, and submits it to VMRay. The verdict then drives the response programmatically, which keeps analysts out of the loop on cases that resolve themselves.
Detection, retrieval, analysis, and response with no manual submission step
Every submission tagged to the SOAR case ID for traceability
Email alerts when a file is reclassified as malicious after deeper analysis
The automated integration with tools like VMRay and the SOAR platform allows for fast and efficient triage, investigation, and response, ensuring that suspicious file activity is promptly handled and mitigated before it can cause harm.
