Clinical gateways are found
A scan can reveal a reachable imaging, laboratory, or integration service used to exchange data.

Healthcare and Medical blocklist
Filter observed scanners at exposed clinical service edges while leaving carefully scheduled system changes to care teams.
The coverage
What our sensors observed
Our sensors saw probes against medical imaging, clinical integrations, laboratory systems, and healthcare application services. These interfaces can connect separate systems that need to remain available for care teams.
Why use this feed
Imaging, laboratory, and clinical integrations can depend on connections from specific senders at specific times. Place the source list at the firewall in front of a reachable gateway, then review blocks with the teams responsible for those flows. This lets perimeter rules change without asking them to alter every clinical system during a narrow maintenance window. Keep approved senders and application permissions in place.
The challenges
Scanning can reveal a reachable service before an exploit attempt, whether a flaw is known or still undisclosed. Our sensors record sources doing that probing. A firewall rule using the feed can deny a listed source before its next connection reaches your service, without needing to recognize the exploit itself.
Change windows do not stop probes
If that gateway has a flaw, later traffic can try it while the underlying system is awaiting its next maintenance window.
Filter at the first edge
A listed source can be denied at the perimeter before it reaches a clinical service for the first time.
Edge enforcement
Defend your edge
The feed loads matching rules into your firewall. Listed sources are intercepted before crossing the edge; traffic with no match continues to your services.
Where this feed fits
Use the observed source list where your existing edge controls meet these reachable services.
Review scanner sources at the firewall in front of a reachable imaging exchange. Check that approved senders can still deliver studies.
Apply the list around an exposed study archive or viewer. The archive and its storage still need their own access controls.
Use an edge rule around interfaces connecting separate care systems. Review it with the teams that depend on those connections.
Place the list in front of a reachable laboratory interface. Keep approved instrument and result flows available.
Review scanner sources at the gateway serving a reachable clinical application. User permissions stay with the application.
Where several clinical systems cross the same firewall, use one updated list there. Keep service specific exceptions for each system.
