A Look at the Cybersecurity War in Healthcare and How Healthcare Organizations Are Responding
Ransomware attacks and data breaches in healthcare impacted more than 51 million electronic medical records in 2022, according to a 2022 Healthcare Data Breach Report published in the HIPAA Journal. Despite a 113% decline from 2021, it was the second-highest number of breaches to date.
Although national health systems have the resources to hire healthcare cybersecurity experts and to support comprehensive staff training, smaller institutions that may lack even a full-time IT staff, are much more vulnerable.
A white paper sponsored by Konica Minolta highlights the scope of this cybersecurity war. The paper explores how bad actors instigate these cyber attacks, the scope of the data breaches, and what stakeholders are doing at the regional and national levels to address this crisis. It also explores how hospitals respond to these challenges.
