What Are the Biggest Cybersecurity Threats Faced by the Healthcare Industry?

The healthcare industry has undergone some major changes in the past decade. The good news is that almost all those changes have contributed to the betterment of the industry with both medical facilities and patients being the beneficiaries.

 

However, there are some newfound vulnerabilities too; examples include cybersecurity threats. The section below talks about the most common cybersecurity threats faced by the healthcare industry.

 

Ransomware

 

Ransomware is a kind of malware known for infecting files and systems and making them inaccessible to the owner until he pays a ransom. This medical security issue can be triggered in one or more of the following ways:

 

  • Through a phishing email containing malicious attachments
  • Upon clicking malicious links
  • As a result of viewing advertisements containing malware (the phenomenon is referred to as malvertising)

 

Data Breach

 

It has become extremely common for hospitals to become victims of data breaches. A recent survey has revealed that healthcare organizations are bigger victims of this cybersecurity issue than any other public or private sector company.

 

There are several criminal activities for which unscrupulous individuals can use the patients’ data. However, the most common ones among them are:

 

Leveraging information on particular terminal illnesses or major diseases

Carrying out long-term identity theft

 

DDoS Attacks

 

DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks are widely used by cybercriminals and hacktivists for overwhelming networks until they become completely inoperable. A DDoS attack can make life difficult for medical practitioners who cannot offer adequate patient care without accessing the compromised network. Problems may also arise when a healthcare provider fails to receive and send emails, records, data, and prescriptions as a result of not having a running Internet connection following a DDoS attack. 

 

If you want to protect your medical center from falling prey to any of the above cybersecurity issues, get in touch with Asimily. They will help you in overcoming such security and risk management challenges effortlessly.

For instance, in recent years, banks have spent aggressively to ensure compliance to enforcement of stringent laws. Some of the laws and regulations include the Dodd-Frank Act, BASEL III, Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), and Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA). Moreover, in this challenging ecosystem, an integrated approach to GRC translates into bottom-line financial benefits for enterprises, which is anticipated to be a major factor driving market growth.

 

Enterprise governance, risk and compliance is vital for all industry verticals. However, many organizations in BFSI, telecom, and manufacturing service industries are confronting significant losses as they have deployed systems that lack a holistic view of enterprise risks. They have, however, eventually started to realize that their financial processes are inefficient and the enterprise risk management initiatives they have undertaken are incompetent in view of the growing mandates for regulatory compliance. At the same time, the regulatory and corporate governance scenario is evolving continuously, thereby prompting such services and institutions to roll out a culture that emphasizes standard business practices and balanced risk-taking.
