Healthcare Industry
Keep your electronic health records and patient data secure.
Healthcare Breaches Cost More Than Any Other Industry
The healthcare industry has prime information for hackers in the form of personal patient info (known as protected health information, or PHI). Just one basic patient record can fetch several hundred dollars on the dark web—a fully-populated record, even more. In 2019, a single attack impacted over 300,000 patient records, and overall, close to 35 million patient records were exposed in the US alone.
Healthcare organizations are obligated by law to keep PHI secure—which can be a daunting task when multiple systems throughout a health network can access patient data. Next generation attacks, including phishing and ransomware attacks, can infiltrate patient record systems and IoT devices to steal PHI.
