Healthcare systems are prime targets for malware attacks due to the sensitive nature of Protected Health Information (PHI). Malware can cause numerous issues, including:
Data breaches leading to the exposure of personal and medical information. Disruption of Electronic Health Records (EHR) systems, affecting patient care and administrative functions. Ransomware attacks that lock down critical systems until a ransom is paid. Financial losses due to downtime and recovery efforts. Loss of trust from patients and the public.
