fact
According to a 2020 Verizon report, nearly 38% of healthcare organizations reported experiencing a breach on their devices within the past year.
Regulations and standards we work with
One of the nice things about using them is that we could use some of their resources for a limited time on an as-needed basis, and didn’t need to hire full-time employees. That also made vetting easier.

Q&A: healthcare data security services
The biggest security threat to healthcare data is often considered to be cyber attacks such as hacking, phishing, and malware. These types of attacks can compromise sensitive patient information such a medical records and lead to data breaches.
Data loss during migration operations or data processing in healthcare can pose a significant cybersecurity risk. To mitigate these risks, healthcare organizations should implement robust security measures, such as encryption and secure data transfer protocols, and conduct thorough testing before and after any migration or data processing operations.
Additionally, they should have incident response plans in place to quickly and effectively respond to any security breaches that may occur.
Lack of employee training, weak passwords, and outdated systems and software can also contribute to the risk of a data breach in the healthcare industry.
Healthcare organizations can protect patient data by implementing a number of security measures. Such as regular security assessments, proper employee training, incorporating the best practices of quality assurance and keeping up to date with industry standards and regulations.
Also, implementing backup and rollback best practices can help mitigate the risk of data loss during migration operations or data processing in healthcare.
