Healthcare data security must remain a top priority, even when changing locations, according to an article on the Health IT Security website.
This is especially true when everything from the air conditioning system to its security system could be connected to the internet.
One overlooked endpoint could potentially lead to a data security incident, and end up compromising patient data.

For instance, work stations may have patient information on them, and it’s important to make sure that they’re accounted for.
