Why Multi-factor Authentication and Firmware Controls Are Priority for EMS Technology

Deliver trusted, mission-critical access to real-time patient data—even in the most demanding environments. Panasonic Connect highlights how EMS agencies can protect sensitive health information by integrating Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and firmware-level security into rugged enterprise devices from the ground up.

With alarming data breaches in 2024 affecting 70% of U.S. healthcare records, implementing strong authentication methods and continuous firmware monitoring isn’t optional—it's essential. MFA ensures only authorized EMTs access patient care data, while firmware controls safeguard against hidden threats that lie beneath the operating system.

Panasonic Connect supports EMS teams with modular, secure devices that adapt to evolving requirements, plus Smart Compliance tools that cover full firmware lifecycle—from inventory to detection and response—so ambulances and their mobile workstations stay resilient and operational.

Empower your EMS teams with confidence. Prioritize security that protects patient privacy, maintains compliance, and keeps your critical technology mission-ready.
