THE STATE OF CYBERSECURITY in the Healthcare Industry
- 92% of healthcare organizations were targeted by cyberattacks in the past 12 months.
- Ransomware attacks led to an average of nearly 19 days of downtime for U.S. healthcare organizations.
- In 2025, the average cost of a healthcare data breach was 9.8 million.
A single breach isn’t just a technical problem—it threatens patient care, compliance, and community trust.

The Challenge
Hospitals face unique cyber risks. Every connected device, system, and application is a potential entry point for attacks.
What’s at stake:
- Patient Safety: Locked systems delay treatment and critical procedures
- Sensitive Data Exposure: Electronic Health Records (PHI), financial data, and research information
- Regulatory Violations: HIPAA and other compliance penalties
- Operational Disruption: Lost productivity, downtime, and expensive remediation
- Reputation Damage: Patients and staff lose trust after breaches
In healthcare, downtime is not just inconvenient—it is a patient safety threat.
The Solution
A strong password or antivirus isn’t enough. Hospitals need multi-layered protection to cover every potential threat vector.
What’s at stake:
- Firewalls & Network Segmentation – Stop intruders before they enter your network
- Endpoint Protection & Device Monitoring – Protect every connected device
- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – Ensure only authorized access
- 24/7 Threat Monitoring & Response – Detect, isolate, and remediate threats
immediately - Backup & Disaster Recovery – Minimize downtime and safeguard patient data
