The Healthcare industry is going through a lot of technological advancement and adopting various electronic measures for availing the best healthcare services. As a result of this digital transformation, electronic data becomes the lifeblood of healthcare cybersecurity. Electronic data, in the healthcare context, consists of patients’ medical reports, and personal details that must be kept confidential, integrity must be preserved, and it must be made available on-demand wherever and whenever it is needed. This electronic environment has also added a lot of cybersecurity threats to the safety of sensitive data and information of the patients mentioned below-
Cyberattack prone medical devices Healthcare cybersecurity becomes a major concern now as a lot of hospitals have various types of specialized hospital information systems such as practice management support systems, EHR systems, e-prescribing systems, radiology information systems, clinical decision support systems, and computerized physician order entry systems. Also, there are a lot of medical devices that are comprised under the Internet of Things that need to be secured from any cyber attack. If these devices are open to such cyber threats then the business of healthcare and clinical care can grind to a halt. Aligning cybersecurity with healthcare facilitates the delivery of quality care eliminating any disruptions that can cause negative impacts on the clinical outcomes.
Leakage of sensitive information Healthcare cybersecurity can not be overlooked because there is a high level of vulnerability and is usually targeted by cyber thieves, as they consist of the high-monetary and intelligence value information. The targeted data includes financial information like credit card and bank account numbers, patients’ protected health information (PHI), personally identifying information (PII) such as Social Security numbers, and intellectual property related to medical research and innovation.
Need trained and educated healthcare staff members The most important defense against such cyber threats is to instill a patient safety-focused culture of cybersecurity. This strengthen health care firms to look after their culture of patient care to impart a high quality cybersecurity. A culture of healthcare cybersecurity, where the staff members view themselves as proactive defenders of patients and their data, will have a tremendous impact on mitigating cyber risk to the organization and patients.
