Telemedicine security

2024 Healthcare faces evolving cybersecurity threats, especially as small healthcare providers and connected technologies become new targets for attacks. Data breaches are widespread and costly. Advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies provide new tools for detecting and predicting cyberthreats, while zero-trust security frameworks and blockchain technologies represent advances in defenses. The regulatory environment continues to evolve, posing new compliance challenges for healthcare organizations, particularly in the areas of telemedicine and third-party vendor risk management. The case studies highlight the importance of adopting a proactive strategy in terms of staff training, technology deployment, and compliance. Going forward, the healthcare industry will need to maintain vigilance and adaptability to cybersecurity threats to ensure secure, continuous care for patients.
