The riskiest connected healthcare devices continuing to pose a threat in 2023

The adoption of digital healthcare technologies, including AI, robotics, and Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices, has increased due to the pandemic, but it also made the sector more vulnerable to cyberattacks. In 2021, 45 million people were affected by healthcare-related cyberattacks. Ransomware, DICOM workstations, and patient monitors were among riskiest devices. Healthcare organizations are urged to implement a single Device Visibility solution across all connected assets, understand the scale of risk, plan appropriate cybersecurity strategies, and invest in devices with strong security features to mitigate risks.
