The healthcare industry has always been a prominent target for cybercriminals worldwide. They can access high-value patient PHI\/PII data and use it maliciously to disrupt the patient\u2019s treatment routine and bring down uptime, which is critical. It has repercussions on patients, doctors, hospitals, and everything associated with the healthcare ecosystem.<\/p>\n

Cybercrime\u2019s recent surge has led many health care organizations to realize that they need better security. The industry now understands the need for data security, but many obstacles remain. Here are some of the most substantial of these challenges for the coming year.<\/p>\n

In addition, Healthcare software providers and organizations must comply with HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act). It helps them to protect their sensitive information. However, few of them follow it strictly, giving attackers access to the data.<\/p>\n
