CynergisTek: Helping Healthcare Organizations Tackle with Cybersecurity Threats

CynergisTek : Helping Healthcare Organizations Tackle Cybersecurity Threats The digital revolution has equipped the healthcare sector with new tools and software to store, manage, and access medical data seamlessly and efficiently. However, this has presented several challenges pertaining to information security—an area where the healthcare industry has been slow to respond. In fact, cyber-attacks, health information breaches, and medical identity thefts have almost become an everyday affair for players across this field. The situation has become more complicated during the Covid-19 pandemic that has given rise to the trend of telehealth. As thousands of patients today connect with clinicians by using IoT and mobile devices, it has become essential for healthcare providers to put adequate security and privacy protection measures in place for ensuring the integrity of patient health information (PHI). In such a scenario, healthcare organizations are on a constant lookout for a partner who can help them identify potential exposure, manage security, and address inherent cybersecurity risks.

Enter CynergisTek.
