There has been a transformation in the healthcare sector with technology being more necessary for patient treatment, data storage, and even process efficiency. Yet, the usage of technology means that people can be easily targeted by attacks online and so the need to enforce IT security and compliance best practices cannot be ignored. Thus, hackers tend to target healthcare organizations with the aim of exploiting these shortcomings and accessing sensitive information of the patients. Healthcare providers deserve a trusted vendor partner who will assist them in meeting the most stringent industry requirements and protecting the patients’ information. That’s where Sennovate comes in.’
Most healthcare businesses deal with sensitive information which makes them easy targets for hackers. In the black market, the data that exists in healthcare systems including the PHI and financial data is highly sought after. To disrupt such systems, there are various methods used by cybercriminals such as ransomware, phishing and insiders.
Ransomware attacks are more devastating, which often leads to the locking of important systems, and deletion of crucial information. Sometimes, healthcare facilities have been forced to part with huge amounts of money to regain control of their network. In addition, exposure of information can cost a facility a lot of money, bring certain legal obligations as well as erode patients’ trust.
To be safe from these risks, the healthcare systems require a proper cybersecurity plan that should be in place. Sennovate offer solutions and services designed to protect healthcare IT environments, including:
