Your Guide to Cyber Resilience in Healthcare
Sophisticated hackers, relentless cybercriminals, and distracted employees have converged into an explosive landscape of cybercrime – with sobering success rates.
The cost to healthcare organizations is staggering. Consider Change Healthcare, which so far has incurred about $870 million in costs related to recent cyberattack, including restoring systems, response efforts, and medical costs linked to suspending some care-management activities. Direct costs for the year are expected to exceed $1 billion.
If you haven’t yet felt the sting of a cyberattack, ransomware scheme, or data breach, consider yourself lucky. Last year, nearly two-thirds of healthcare organizations experienced ransomware attacks, up 26% in two years and costing an average of $2.20 million for recovery. You could be next.
Cybercriminals are continuously making their attacks more targeted, more disruptive, and more ingenious. Healthcare organizations – with their treasure troves of sensitive patient information – are particularly vulnerable for criminals looking to cash in on the black market.
In a moment of distraction, even vigilant employees can let in an attacker. And with the help of generative AI, these attacks appear increasingly authentic, making them more difficult than ever to thwart.
Cybersecurity is certainly essential to block attacks from happening in the first place. But as criminals have demonstrated an uncanny ability to adapt, these measures alone cannot protect your organization and your patients. You need a comprehensive cyber resilience plan to help you quickly get back on track if an attack is successful.
This ebook will help you understand cyber resilience, what’s at stake, and how to strengthen your approach.
