Cynerio Research Finds Critical Medical Device Risks Continue to Threaten Hospital Security and Patient Safety
Summary
“Healthcare is a top target for cyber attacks, and even with continued investments in cybersecurity, critical vulnerabilities remain in many of the medical devices hospitals rely on for patient care,” said Daniel Brodie, CTO and co-founder, Cynerio. Hospitals and health systems don’t need more data – they need advanced solutions that mitigate risks and empower them to fight back against cyber attacks, and as medical device security providers its time for all of us to step up. Report Methodology Cynerio collects detailed information about a hospital’s connected device footprint through a patented connector that is typically placed on the core switch’s SPAN port. The data in this report is based on our analysis of over 10 million IoT and IoMT devices collected from current Cynerio implementations at over 300 hospitals and other healthcare facilities in the US and around the world. With solutions that cater to healthcare’s every IT need – from Enterprise IoT to OT and IoMT – we promote cross-organizational alignment and give hospitals the control, foresight, and adaptability they require to stay cyber-secure in a constantly evolving threatscape.
