The need for strong information security and privacy measures within healthcare organizations is clearer than ever before.  Digitization of healthcare has improved delivery but made sensitive and valuable personal data more accessible to those with malicious intent. Old paperwork with its inherent protections has migrated to the cloud.  While this has proven valuable to patients and medical practitioners, the increased connectivity and subsequent ease of remote access and data sharing have made the industry more vulnerable to cyberattacks such as ransomware, data breaches or, denial of services.

Medical records sell for significant amounts on the dark web. With healthcare cyber-crime growing at a steep incline, significantly higher investments are needed to clean up the after-effects of a successful cyber-attack on providers and their supply chain.

At MAKINSIGHTS, we work across the healthcare value chain to help our clients navigate their most pressing information security challenges.
