Time has made it obvious that the healthcare industry is not immune to cybercrime. Becker’s Hospital Review reported that data breaches cost the healthcare industry $5.6 billion yearly. The Breach Barometer Report: Year in Review found that there was an average of one data breach in the health field per day in 2016. These breaches were estimated to have affected some 27 million+ patient records.
