Staying one step ahead with an end-to-end cybersecurity strategy
With increased threats to patient safety and business continuity, healthcare leaders must advance security measures to protect data confidentiality, integrity and availability. Yet hospitals and health systems are often not equipped to do this alone. They must go from protecting network data and preventing downtime of compromised devices to implementing a more secure enterprise-wide strategy.
While the healthcare IT industry is becoming a lucrative target for malicious activity, more and more medical devices are connecting to hospital networks, feeding EMR systems with physiological data. The multitude of vendors, legacy networks and devices in any given hospital provides attractive access points for bad actors to extract volumes of valuable patient data. And data that’s been compromised is data that’s not available for clinicians to use to make timely decisions at the point of care.
