Cyber risk in the healthcare sector has risen dramatically. Hospitals, doctors’ networks, insurance companies, and others are prime targets for hackers due to the valuable protected health information (PHI) they store and the vital role they play in our nation’s critical infrastructure.
Cyber risk in the healthcare sector has risen dramatically. Hospitals, doctors’ networks, insurance companies, and others are prime targets for hackers due to the valuable protected health information (PHI) they store and the vital role they play in our nation’s critical infrastructure.
Cyber risk is further punctuated by the adoption of cloud services, telehealth, and IoT devices that expand the attack surface. Not to mention a surging ransomware epidemic. 61% of the healthcare sector is at heightened risk of ransomware.
A cyberattack against healthcare institutions can have financial, reputational, regulatory, and human impact. Bad actors can hijack computer systems and restrict access to critical data, shut down systems and equipment, and delay life-saving procedures.
