Cyber Pulse:The State of Cybersecurity in Healthcare
By Kaspersky
To gain insight into what’s happening in the healthcare industry when it comes to cybersecurity, Kaspersky Lab issued a survey. The research provides insight into the perceptions of healthcare employees in North America regarding cybersecurity in their workplace, including awareness of cybersecurity breaches, protection of sensitive information, cybersecurity awareness and training, and more. Kaspersky Lab commissioned the research firm Opinion Matters to conduct a survey of 1,758 employees based in healthcare organizations in the United States and Canada. Through this research, the company aims to create a dialogue among businesses and IT staff in healthcare about the current state of awareness of cybersecurity among their employees, along with providing suggested proactive steps that can be taken to prioritize cybersecurity awareness through trainings and consistent education, aiming to prevent or minimize the next cybersecurity issue.
