Complex security needs

Internet of Things (IoT) medical devices, telehealth platforms and digitized medical record storage can create cybersecurity vulnerabilities that bad actors may exploit. In addition, healthcare workers are at risk of physical attacks by frustrated or ill visitors. Since healthcare settings hold valuable medications and devices, they are targets of both random and organized theft. 

Sensitive environments

Hospitals and healthcare facilities need to be welcoming to patients and must protect privacy during sensitive procedures and moments, while also safeguarding staff and visitors. 

Regulatory requirements

Voluntary standards set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and mandatory Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) rules require healthcare settings to safeguard sensitive data. While hospitals need facility security systems with wide coverage, they also need to be careful about what sensitive patient data is captured with these systems and how that data is stored and protected. 

Increasing pressure

As patient volumes, staffing shortages and behavioral health needs strain healthcare environments, security teams must prepare for potentially busier, higher-risk facilities.

BCD Configurations for Hospital and Healthcare Building Video Security

BCD works with security integrators in the healthcare space to offer:

  • Solutions for multiple threat levels: BCD works with integrators to develop systems that monitor supplies, occupancy levels and complex, multi-building healthcare campuses. We support validated configurations for footage storage, video archiving and early threat detection.
  • Compliance-forward appliances: We provide infrastructure compliant with the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), the Trade Agreements Act (TAA) and the Buy American Act (BAA). Our experience navigating government requirements and our ISO 9001:2015 certified facilities support compliant solutions.
  • Cyber-hardened appliances: With cyber-hardening certification, we configure hardware with built-in defenses to mitigate the threat of cyberattacks and tampering.
  • Ongoing support: Before, during and after the sale, we provide 24/7/365 support.

Our Featured Appliances for Healthcare 

For hospitals, clinics, medical colleges and specialized healthcare centers, BCD recommends:

HA virtualized infrastructure reduces single points of failure. If one server goes down, the remaining nodes can redistribute VMS and workloads to limit downtime and preserve access to stored video.

Best of all, this IT infrastructure can be used in a range of healthcare software-focused environments, including access control, nurse call stations, VMS and building management. 

BCD’s validated, AI-ready systems can optimize and analyze multiple video feeds at once. High-resolution video, deep learning capabilities and high frame rates support pattern recognition, object detection and behavior analysis for faster security insights. In healthcare settings, these features and real-time video analytics help lean teams uncover potential threats early. 

Our AI-ready systems are also scalable as healthcare facilities grow. Efficient compression allows hospitals and clinics to extend storage capacity.
