Security Health Check: Hot Topics to Expect at HIMSS 2022 : @VMblog
Summary
Healthcare organizations and government entities with applications that gather and manage sensitive personal data must take proactive security measures, including running ongoing threat hunting programs and prioritizing cloud workload protection. In the healthcare industry, which has traditionally operated with less defined cybersecurity controls, many individual medical practices are looking to standardize and secure processes in their facilities as well as experiment with new edge use cases in areas such as remote hospitals and telemedicine." Despite increasing cyber risks, many clinicians also continue to resist strict network controls that could inhibit access to information and communications to treat patients and save lives. With the new dynamics that come with telehealth adoption, staffing shortfalls, supply chain disruptions and especially increasing cybersecurity threats, it’s understandable that 2022 could see a myriad of investments in innovation and data protection as organizations strive to improve the security, quality, and their capacity, for, patient care."
