  • Healthcare's Spike In Cloud Adoption Raises Questions For Hospitals And Security Practitioners
    9/4/2018

    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.

Adoption in the healthcare industry has nearly doubled in since 2016, up from 30.9 to 57.3 percent in 2018.
