Healthcare delivery organizations report concern over malware

Healthcare delivery organizations (HDOs) face unique cybersecurity challenges particularly linked to Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices. Ransomware and malware attacks along with remote breaches via unknown IP addresses have become commonplace, increasing patient mortality rates by 20%, causing operational delays and longer patient stays. More than 40% of medical devices are also nearing end-of-life, exacerbating the issue, according to a report by Asimily.
