Cyberattacks can impact anyone in any organization or market sector these days, but healthcare organizations and the people who work in them are particular targets. It is no longer a matter of “if” but “when” your healthcare organization will be targeted in a cyberattack. In fact, you may have already been hit and are not aware it is happening.
That is why awareness is a good starting point for any healthcare organization’s cybersecurity strategy. The more everyone in the organization, from C-suite level executives, to the medical staff, to the receptionists, grasps the nature of cyberattacks, the more prepared they’ll be to recognize attack styles and vectors, and then take measures to prevent them.
At the very least, anyone in your healthcare organization who touches a computer needs to understand the composition of cyberattacks and how they happen. This latest whitepaper in our cybersecurity series details the structure of some of the more prevalent attack methods encountered in healthcare and other industries to provide a baseline for preventing them and properly responding when they happen.
