Claroty vs Ordr (2026)
Both discover connected devices on hospital networks and turn what they learn into segmentation. Claroty sells xDome for Healthcare, built on Medigate, which Claroty bought in 2022. It profiles each device, ranks vulnerabilities by clinical impact and manages vendor remote access. Claire, an AI agent launched in May 2026, triages alerts, drafts segmentation policy and opens tickets. Ordr watches traffic with passive sensors. In house machine learning classifies each device, baselines its behavior and flags anomalies. AI Protect for Segmentation shows the effect of a policy before any rule changes and applies approved policies through the hospital's firewalls and NAC. Choose Claroty for clinical impact ranking, vendor remote access and published certificates; choose Ordr for segmentation with a published approval step.
- Vulnerabilities should be ranked by their clinical impact.
- Device manufacturers' remote access should be managed in the same platform.
- Your security review needs downloadable certificates and a stated business associate position.
- Segmentation policy should be written from observed device behavior.
- Policy changes should wait for an operator's approval after a simulation.
- You want to try the ORDR IQ assistant in a free sandbox before a sales call.
This comparison is published by AI Health Index, an independent research platform that compares healthcare AI vendors objectively. Claroty and Ordr are each graded against the same capability taxonomy, from each vendor's own public materials and the regulatory record, under the AI Health Index verification standard.

Questions buyers ask
How do Claroty and Ordr work with the EHR?
The integrations catalog lists connectors built and supported by Claroty for Accruent, in both directions with more than 60 device attributes, Nuvolo on ServiceNow, TRIMEDX, ServiceNow, Splunk, CrowdStrike, Rapid7, Tenable, Cisco, Aruba ClearPass, Check Point, Fortinet and Palo Alto. Parkland Health runs a live connection to its CMMS and University of Rochester Medicine enforces firewall policy from xDome classifications.
With Ordr, the company cites more than 130 integrations, including Cisco ISE, ServiceNow CMDB enrichment, Nuvolo, Qualys, firewalls and VMware NSX, pushing device context to enforcement points and filling gaps in the CMDB. Dayton Children's runs ORDR with Cisco ISE to place devices in segmented VLANs. From the AI Health Index, drawn from each vendor's own published materials and the regulatory record, verified September 30, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
How do Claroty and Ordr handle patient data?
In Claroty's case, the HIPAA policy (effective 30 Sep 2024) says device traffic may incidentally contain PHI and bars de-identifying PHI for internal use without authorization.
For Ordr, the privacy policy says the device profiling models are built in house and run in ORDR's own data center without exposing customer data to third-party models or outside training; ORDR IQ runs with zero data retention always on, processes input in real time, deletes it after computation, and never uses it to train models. The SOC 2 page adds secure data destruction at contract end. From the AI Health Index, drawn from each vendor's own published materials and the regulatory record, verified September 30, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
What evidence is published for Claroty and Ordr?
KLAS rated Claroty a 2026 Top Performer for Healthcare IoT Security at 92.5 from 35 organizations, a satisfaction measure rather than a detection result.
In Ordr's case, the company cites more than 100 million devices classified and 500-plus customers, and KLAS named it a market leader in 2022. None of it comes with a before and after figure or a stated method. From the AI Health Index, drawn from each vendor's own published materials and the regulatory record, verified September 30, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
How much do Claroty and Ordr leave to the clinician?
For Claroty, the AI Addendum (revised 28 Sep 2026) makes human review of output the customer's obligation and bars use of the AI features to control a medical device or life-sustaining system without that review; nothing published says which Claire actions wait for approval, what can be rolled back, or how actions are logged.
With Ordr, the platform shows every device group, allowed flow and policy gap, simulates the impact of enforcement and asks the operator to approve before rules change, and enforcement runs through the customer's own firewalls and NAC. From the AI Health Index, drawn from each vendor's own published materials and the regulatory record, verified September 30, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
Both records were reviewed on this site in September 2026. Neither publishes a price. Claroty's HIPAA policy states business associate status. Ordr's healthcare page carries a "HIPAA Compliant" badge. It states no business associate position. Ordr publishes an approval step for segmentation. Neither says what its AI agent may do without approval. Claroty's terms make human review of Claire's output the customer's duty. Claroty's AI Addendum lets it improve its products with data derived from customer environments. Ordr's privacy policy says no customer data trains outside models. Ordr runs on AWS in us-east-1, with a SOC 2 Type II report under NDA. Claroty publishes ISO 27001 and 27701 certificates for download. Ordr gives full visibility in 24 to 48 hours on one page and 48 to 72 on another. Both publish rank claims about themselves, which this page does not rely on.
Ask Claroty which Claire actions wait for approval, and ask Ordr the same about ORDR IQ.
