Utilization Dashboard

The Utilization dashboard provides quick access to statistics about medical IoT device operations.

When the

IoT Security

portal theme is Medical

IoT Security

, you can see the Utilization dashboard.

IoT Security

gathers utilization statistics and metrics about the medical IoT devices it is monitoring and displays them on this dashboard. You can then leverage this data to minimize device downtime, reduce total cost of ownership (TCO), and increase revenue through better capital planning. In addition to minimizing downtime and maintenance, you can also use the gathered data to identify unused assets (possibly broken or misplaced) and ensure safe and secure device disposal at the end of the IoT device life cycle.

Make sure the application content version on your firewalls is 8367-6513 or later; that is, the major version, which is identified by the first four digits, is 8367 or above (8368, 8369, 8370, and so on), starting from 8367-6513. These versions include healthcare-specific applications that allow

IoT Security

to discover medical equipment and provide utilization data. They also allow firewall security policy rules to include healthcare-specific applications.

To view the Utilization dashboard, select

Dashboards

and then choose

Utilization

from the

Manage Dashboards

drop-down list.

The dashboard is organized into two broad sections. At the top is a set of filters for sites, medical IoT device categories, and time ranges that control what appears on the page. Below the filters are information panels that display various types of information about how medical IoT devices are being utilized.

In addition to viewing the dashboard in the

IoT Security

portal, you can download its data as an Excel spreadsheet. Click the

Download

icon to the right of the top filters, set the filters to include the data you want to save, and then click
