Ransomware Protection

Layered defences plus tested recovery — so ransomware is an inconvenience, not a closure.

Ransomware against healthcare is rising every quarter. For pharmacy, the impact isn't just IT — it's closed dispensing, NDB notifications, cyber insurance claims and reputational damage.

WAPIT layers prevention (EDR, application control, patching), detection (SOC, network monitoring) and recovery (immutable backups, rehearsed restore) into a single defence designed for community and multi-site pharmacy.

What's included

Built for Australian pharmacy.

Immutable backups

Object-locked, air-gapped copies attackers can't encrypt.

Application control

Allow-listing on dispensing terminals stops most ransomware at execution.

24/7 SOC

Human eyes on alerts that matter, day and night.

Tested recovery

Quarterly restore drills with documented RTO/RPO.

Outcomes

Measurable results for your pharmacy.

  • Ransomware blocked, contained or recovered fast
  • Dispensing back online inside agreed RTO
  • Insurance and NDB obligations clearly handled
Questions answered

What if we get hit anyway?
