INDUSTRY SOLUTION
IT Security for Medical Practices
Protect patient data, fulfill GDPR, implement KBV requirements
Medical practices process health data — the most sensitive data category under GDPR. At the same time, they are individual targets for targeted ransomware attacks. Vyrex protects practice IT with knowledge of TI connectors, PVS, and KBV requirements.
FOR WHOM?
Who benefits specifically?
Practice manager / medical assistant
You must secure practice operations, but tech is not your main job. We deliver understandable instructions instead of CISO slang.
Practice management system operator
You support medical informatics (CGM, medatixx, RED, T2med). We know the PVS world and do nothing that endangers live operations.
HOW WE WORK
Structured 4-step process.
01
TI connector hardening
We check your TI connector configuration against current gematik recommendations and close the typical three gaps.

FAQ
Frequently asked.
Is the KBV IT security guideline mandatory?
Yes, since April 1, 2021 for all contract-medical practices — staggered by practice size in five annexes. Violations can result in fee reductions.
Does Vyrex see patient data?
No. Vyrex logs security events (logins, process starts, network) but never patient contents. Processing follows GDPR Art. 28 with DPA — the TI connector is not intercepted.
What does IT security cost for a single practice?
From €399 monthly in the 'Practice Basis' package for single practices with up to 3 treatment PCs. Larger practices with multiple treatment rooms and multi-doctor setups from €699 monthly.
What to do in case of ransomware in the practice?
Immediately dial emergency number +49 6106 8487800. We activate containment within 30 minutes, start backup restore, and accompany you through the reporting duty to the data protection authority and, if necessary, law enforcement.
