- Phishing – Phishing attacks involve fraudulent emails and websites that trick staff members into disclosing login credentials, financial information, or downloading malicious attachments which leads to unauthorized access to sensitive data, financial losses, and damaged reputation.
- Data Loss – Data loss can occur due to hardware failure, accidental deletion, or cyber-attacks aimed at destroying or stealing medical information resulting in disrupted operations, customer dissatisfaction, lost intellectual property, legal liabilities, and even business closure.
- Ransomware – Ransomware encrypts vital data and demands ransom for its release, while malware infiltrates networks and systems, stealing or destroying sensitive information and resulting in operational disruptions, loss of data, financial burdens, and legal ramifications.
- User Risk – Cybersecurity incidents are often caused by human errors such as weak passwords, and clicking on malicious links. Inadequate security practices put sensitive data at risk, leading to financial losses, damaged reputation, and loss of competitive advantage.
The Cybersecurity Challenge
Healthcare Organizations are Facing
Hospitals and other healthcare facilities are becoming increasingly reliant on technology for many aspects of their operations, from record keeping and patient scheduling to medical imaging and surgical procedures. While this has helped to streamline many processes and improve patient care, it has also opened up these institutions to cybersecurity threats.
- 89% of healthcare organizations reported an average of 43 cyber attacks per year
- $21,500 per hour to as much as $45,700 per hour is the average cost of a cyber attack
- 95% of all identity theft incidents come from stolen healthcare records

Enhance Your Education Security
The Key to Robust Cybersecurity in Healthcare
Healthcare professionals have relatively high turnover rates due to the intense working conditions and therefore require a comprehensive security solution that factors in both old and new employees. It is crucial to maintain rigorous cybersecurity practices including real-time protection, regular access reviews and continual security training to ensure the safety of sensitive data and system integrity.
Healthcare Staff
Given their reliance on health systems for their well-being and the sensitivity of their personal health information, patients form an essential demographic in healthcare cybersecurity. A robust security solution should prioritize safeguarding patient data in real-time, consistently reviewing and controlling access levels, and maintaining continuous system integrity to ensure dependable patient care and confidentiality.
Patients
Third-party healthcare personnel present unique cybersecurity challenges in healthcare due to their necessary yet conditional access to critical systems. Their security strategy must incorporate real-time safeguards, meticulous access control, and ongoing system protection to manage the distinctive risks they pose while maintaining operational efficiency and data confidentiality.
