Digital identity verification is one key to fighting cybersecurity threats

Medical records are highly sought after on the dark web, with each record fetching up to $1,000. This has led to a rise in medical identity theft, which can have devastating consequences for patients, healthcare providers, and insurance companies. To combat this growing threat, healthcare organizations need to adopt stronger identity verification measures, such as biometric authentication, to ensure patient security. The adoption of biometrics can help prevent account takeovers and ensure that the patient receiving treatment is the correct individual.
