Are Hospitals at a High Risk of cyberattacks? Yes, they are! Since they store sensitive data and usually have weak cyber defences. Thus, putting Digital Health at stake. Even the pandemic has raised the increase in the rate of cyberattacks on Hospitals as they are the most attractive targets for hackers.
When the pandemic hit, a flood of Digital Health technologies flowed into every hospital environment, enabling the connectivity of services. Despite all the advantages, it also increased hospital exposure to cyberattacks thus pushing hospitals into high risk of cyberattacks and putting digital health at stake. The expansion of connected medical equipment, the use of new systems, and the availability of technology have opened up new chances for threats to cross even the most effective firewalls.
