800+ pre-built security policies
Digital technology is transforming Australia’s healthcare sector.
Healthcare remains the #1 sector targeted by cybercriminals in Australia.i
SureDeploy is the smart, simple way to boost security, compliance and efficiency for healthcare.
Digital innovation in healthcare is accelerating. So are the security risks.
As the healthcare sector has accelerated its use of digital health solutions—particularly since Covid-19—the risk of cyberattack has increased too. The depth of data stored by healthcare providers is highly attractive to cybercriminals, as is the fact many providers use devices out in the field, and commonly move data between systems.
It’s also not uncommon for devices to be shared amongst staff, and many healthcare workers also don’t have the sufficient security or IT training to be vigilant about device security.
Growing pressure on the sector, and the ever-increasing talent shortage, also means it’s far too easy for technology maintenance to fall through the cracks.

Why SureDeploy for healthcare?
SureDeploy is a smart, cost-effective way to automate endpoint device deployment and management for healthcare organisations of all sizes. It can relieve the workload on your IT team, and boost overall efficiency, security, and compliance.
Ensuring mobile device security in healthcare is critical. SureDeploy ‘turbocharges’ your overall security posture and compliance by giving your IT team access to our library of 800+ pre-configured security policies, as well as the ability to easily set up automated application updates. This ensures that all endpoint devices (computers, laptops, tablets or smartphones) are compliant with security policies, and also have the core apps installed and configured (e.g., with robust anti-virus and anti-malware solutions).
You can also ensure adherence with the latest compliance regulations and recommendations - like the Australian Privacy Act and Essential 8 - by building specific requirements and controls into your policies, and patch management of applications, all whilst monitoring performance with dashboards and audit reports.
SureDeploy simplifies and streamlines how you manage every device within your healthcare organisation. Updates can be automatically packaged, tested, and pushed into an Intune tenant and out to all devices at any time—a seamless, efficient experience for users and IT teams. Administrators also see the status of all devices, applications, and policies via a single pane of glass. This makes it easy to detect issues, and stay on top of licensing updates, renewals, and hardware refreshes.
Leverage pre-configured policies and best practices to easily set up and manage a Standard Operating Environment (SOE). By using SureDeploy to set up your Intune tenant, every device is then ‘magically’ configured as part of this SOE, which means smooth onboarding, less time for employees to come up to speed, and a reduction in IT maintenance by up to 70%.i New devices can be dispatched direct to users quickly and used almost instantly. All the user needs to do is login using their secure credentials, and their applications and policies are automatically appliedii.
Extending the power of Microsoft Intune, SureDeploy allows you to manage 1000s of devices, security policies and applications, quickly, simultaneously and centrally, without having to manually package applications and create policies from scratch. Managing endpoints using our platform or managed services (via our partner network), without having to navigate a steep learning curve, is a win for all.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How can SureDeploy help with mobile device security in healthcare?
With a mobile device management (MDM) solution like SureDeploy, you can bring all your device management together in a central location. Plus, you can achieve enhanced security, automated app distribution, and the ability to enforce policies for regulatory compliance. If you would like to know more about how SureDeploy can work for your healthcare organisation, contact us about a demo.
-
What makes SureDeploy different to other MDM solutions?
SureDeploy is a smart solution that enhances the power of Microsoft Intune. It includes a vast 800+ library of pre-configured policies which significantly streamlines and simplifies your Intune setup processes—making SureDeploy much faster and easier to use than other MDM solutions. By leveraging our managed services, you can also save money, and ensure more robust security policies are configured, deployed and monitored without having to do all the work.
-
What security measures are in place to protect patient data and ensure HIPAA compliance when using SureDeploy?
Security is a top concern in the healthcare industry, given the sensitivity of patient data and the distributed nature of many healthcare workforces. IT managers typically ask us about how SureDeploy and Microsoft Intune work together to ensure data encryption, access controls, device authentication and compliance—as well as how they meet regulations like the Essential 8, NIST, or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). If you want to learn more about these features specifically, we would be very happy to provide a demo and run through specific policy sets and relevant compliance features.
-
Should we manage SureDeploy and Intune in-house, or partner with an external managed services provider?
Healthcare IT managers are often tasked with weighing up the pros and cons of outsourcing their IT to a specialist partner. After seeing a demo of SureDeploy and digging deeper into their requirements, most organisations we work with see SureDeploy as a ‘no brainer’. The alternative is a slow and steep learning curve, and time-consuming processes. When we provide a demo of our solution, we will openly discuss the advantages and drawbacks of the approaches being considered. We also speak about factors such as cost, compliance, expertise, the level of control you wish to retain, and your timeline.
-
How will adopting SureDeploy impact our existing IT infrastructure and workflows?
Integrating a robust solution like SureDeploy into your current systems and workflows can deliver vast benefits - particularly from a time-saving perspective. The solution can streamline the way you handle deployments, onboard users, provide training and, most importantly, secure your endpoint devices.

“The CNS solution SureDeploy functions like an installer ‘wizard’. It detects an existing version and performs a graceful upgrade. Previously, all of this had to be done by hand. Now it’s all automated, which has enabled a huge reduction in manpower and risk.”
"When we went searching, SureDeploy came up trumps in terms of its offering and value. SureDeploy has really alleviated complexity associated with desktop management, and enables us to seamlessly provide a reliable, fully updated and secure desktop solution."
“Previously, setting up a store would take days – excluding travel time. As SureDeploy is so quick and easy to use, it has reduced the time required to set up a new store from days to minutes. It has also significantly reduced deployment time both for new stores and replacement devices.”
“Thanks to CNS and SureDeploy, we were able to add 1,400 new devices to our existing environment with very minimal interruption, and without requiring any additional IT staff. Application updates and security patches are now deployed automatically, and the entire administration process is now far more streamlined and effective. It was the smoothest device rollout we have had in over 18 years.”
“While St Catherine’s has always provided a very high quality technology experience to students, the benefit of SureDeploy has really been from an IT administration and security perspective. The automation and rapid deployment of applications, policies, updates and patches has been invaluable.”
