The IoT will lead to many benefits to the healthcare industry, but with connectivity comes the risk of an increase in attacks, according to an article on the Health Tech Zone website.
Scott Borg, chief economist at U.S. Cyber Consequences Unit, urged executives to be thinking about what systems are used for because the first step in the economics of cybersecurity is paying attention to what your hospital or clinic is actually doing.
That will show where the healthcare facilities are most vulnerable and also what systems don’t need as much attention.
“Thinking about where value is created within a healthcare organization can help cybersecurity executives start customizing security to fit their organizations,” Borg said.
