https://lnkd.in/dE9J55VS This attack on the health technology company HealthEC exposed almost 4.5 million records belonging to patients signed up to 18 U.S. healthcare providers. This disclosure reaffirms the current trend in supply chain attacks, and vulnerability of the healthcare sector in 2023 as the list with all breaches reported within the last 24 months to the US Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights ( https://lnkd.in/dFajvcW6 ) shows. #supplychainattacks #databreach

Physicians and patients need secure, HIPAA-compliant ways to communicate that won’t be impacted by cyber-attacks. The recent cyber attack on Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago is a perfect example of this: An article in CNN reported that many providers and patients were left without a way to access medical records or reach each other via phone or hospital communication systems. While texts and phone calls from personal lines are a temporary solution, even those methods put patient data at risk. These types of attacks on hospitals and healthcare facilities are becoming more and more common, emphasizing the need for safe, secure healthcare communications. If you’re a healthcare provider, how do you currently communicate with your care teams and patients?

Data is the lifeblood of healthcare, and protecting it is paramount. Safeguarding sensitive information is vital for healthcare providers. Strong security measures are essential for patient confidence and regulatory compliance. #datasecurity #healthcaresecurity #patientprivacy #healthtech #healthcareindustry

The UnitedHealthcare cyberattack offers a stark reminder about how data security can disrupt an entire industry, and shake the trust of customers nationwide. In 2020 alone, more than 500 data breaches were reported each day. Patients trust healthcare providers to safeguard sensitive data — everything from health conditions to personal lifestyles to financial information is considered confidential. When protected health information is breached, patients suffer the brunt of the consequences. In the case of UHC, thousands of patients were unable to fill prescriptions, make payments, or receive care. Trust and technology are key to creating meaningful connections between patients and providers. We work across the healthcare continuum to establish policies, identify and address vulnerabilities, secure endpoints, and manage technology implementation.
