Cyber attacks are one of the biggest threats facing healthcare systems

The healthcare sector is experiencing an increase in cyber attacks, more than any other sector, endangering patient safety and forcing government bodies to design new cyber security measures. The main types of cyber breaches in healthcare are hacking, supply chain attacks, phishing, and ransomware. Outdated healthcare IT systems and the growing availability of cybercrime tools on the dark web make the industry a prime target for cybercriminals.
