Healthcare's Spike In Cloud Adoption Raises Questions For Hospitals And Security Practitioners9/4/2018
It might come as a surprise, being in one of the most highly-regulated industries around, that the healthcare sector has made significant strides when it comes to embracing the public cloud and the myriad cloud applications that exist today. Messaging apps like Slack enable rapid communication while file sync and share apps like Box enable instant collaboration.

Adoption in the healthcare industry has nearly doubled in since 2016, up from 30.9 to 57.3 percent in 2018. At the same time, with adoption of new technologies, the door is often left open for nefarious actors to take advantage of misconfigurations and careless employee practices that leave data exposed.

Of the PHI data breaches in 2014, more than 50 percent were due to hacking attacks; unauthorized access or disclosure was the cause of a third of the hacks. However, as many institutions prefer to avoid the liability, costs and damage to their reputation that result from disclosure and notification, many breaches go unreported, so that the actual numbers might be much higher.
