The adoption of technologies like EHRs and Al-driven diagnostics has transformed patient care but exposed hospitals to significant cyber risks. The healthcare sector experiences the highest number of data breaches, driven by outdated systems, fragmented vendors, and human error. Ransomware attacks and data breaches disrupt care, erode patient trust, and incur steep financial and regulatory penalties.
Strengthening Hospital IT Security
- To mitigate risks, hospitals must:
- Upgrade legacy systems to reduce vulnerabilities.
- Implement Al-powered threat detection and regular risk assessments.
- Train staff to minimize errors and adopt Zero Trust security protocols.
- Encrypt sensitive data and secure third-party vendor access.
- Test incident response plans to ensure preparedness.
