Tampa General Hospital has teamed up with identity verification company CLEAR to bolster its cybersecurity defenses and improve digital access for employees.
The partnership integrates CLEAR’s CLEAR1 platform into Tampa General’s identity access management system, PingOne DaVinci. The hospital said in an Aug. 20 news release that the move automates password resets, cutting down on manual help desk calls and provides stronger protection against identity-related threats such as social engineering and impersonation.
CLEAR1 uses biometric multi-factor authentication to verify identity. Team members set up the system once with a government-issued ID and a selfie, creating a reusable identity credential. Tampa General said the process ensures only the rightful user can regain access to systems while reducing downtime for clinical staff.
