Secure IT Infrastructure
for Healthcare Providers
Medical data is highly sensitive, clinical systems require maximum uptime, and the Kenya Data Protection Act imposes strict obligations. Sentire builds and manages IT infrastructure that keeps patient data secure and clinical operations running.
Industry Challenges
What Healthcare Providers Face
01
Patient data security
Medical records contain some of the most sensitive personal data. Unauthorised access, ransomware, or accidental disclosure carries serious legal and reputational consequences.
02
System uptime requirements
Clinical operations cannot wait for IT to be fixed. An electronic health record system outage or network failure during a procedure is a patient safety issue.
03
Multi-site connectivity
Clinic networks, satellite facilities, laboratories, and referral partners need to share records securely. A flat, unprotected network creates unnecessary risk.
04
Regulatory obligations
The Kenya Data Protection Act 2019 applies to all personal data including health records. Processors must implement appropriate technical measures to protect data.
Cybersecurity
Endpoint and Network Protection Built for Medical Environments
Clinical workstations, medical devices, and administrative systems all need layered endpoint protection. We deploy and manage next-generation endpoint security with centralised monitoring, automated threat response, and monthly reporting.
Network Infrastructure Review
AuditIdentify vulnerabilities, segment clinical and administrative traffic, and close exposure points in your network.
- Network vulnerability assessment
- VLAN segmentation design
- Firewall rule review
Data Protection
Encrypted Backup and Fast Recovery for Clinical Systems
Patient records, imaging data, and billing systems must be backed up daily to an encrypted, off-site location. If ransomware or hardware failure strikes, restoration must be fast and verified.
Cloud Backup and Disaster Recovery
BackupAutomated encrypted backups with tested restore procedures for clinical systems and electronic health records.
- Daily encrypted backups
- Off-site replication
- Tested restore process with RTO documentation
Hyper-V and VMware Backup
VM BackupVirtualised clinical system backup with granular recovery options for individual records or full system restores.
- Virtualised workload protection
- Granular file-level recovery
- Immutable backup storage
Network Design
Segmented Networks That Protect Clinical Data
Clinical devices, administrative systems, patient Wi-Fi, and medical equipment should each sit on separate network segments. Proper segmentation limits the blast radius of any incident and makes compliance audits straightforward.
Managed Switching and VLANs
SegmentationSeparate VLANs for clinical devices, admin systems, patient Wi-Fi, and medical equipment to limit cross-contamination.
- Clinical, admin, and IoMT VLAN separation
- QoS prioritisation for critical systems
- Centralised management
Wi-Fi Design and Deployment
Enterprise Wi-FiReliable coverage for clinical and administrative areas with separate SSIDs for staff and patients.
- Separate staff and patient SSIDs
- Full ward and corridor coverage
- Centralised policy control
Clinical Network Segmentation
ComplianceDedicated VLANs for EMR and patient data systems, isolated from staff and guest traffic, with a written segmentation report for DPA compliance.
- EMR and patient data isolation
- Guest and staff network separation
- DPA compliance documentation
Access Control
Control Who Accesses Sensitive Areas
Pharmacies, record rooms, server rooms, and restricted wards need physical access control. Biometric readers create tamper-proof audit trails and eliminate shared key risk.
Biometric Access Control
AccessFingerprint and face recognition for restricted areas, with full audit trails for compliance reporting.
- Fingerprint and face verification
- Tamper-proof audit logs
- Zone-based access policies
IP CCTV Installation
SurveillanceIP cameras in waiting areas, corridors, and parking, with AI detection and remote monitoring.
- AI human and vehicle detection
- Remote monitoring via app
- NVR storage with RAID

Compliance
Compliance for Healthcare Data
Kenya Data Protection Act (DPA 2019)
All personal data, including medical records, is subject to the DPA 2019. Healthcare providers must implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect patient data from unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure.
Network Segmentation for Compliance
Regulatory frameworks increasingly require that medical device networks, electronic health record systems, and administrative systems are isolated from one another. Proper VLAN segmentation is both a security and a compliance control.
Sentire provides technical implementation. Engage a qualified data protection officer and healthcare compliance specialist for formal regulatory advice.
