Healthcare Employees Lack Cybersecurity Education and Awareness
Employees of healthcare organizations in the U.S. and Canada are lacking cybersecurity education and awareness in three main areas including regulation, policy and training. Of these key areas, the most alarming statistic found that nearly a third of respondents in North America (32 percent) said that they had never received cybersecurity training from their workplace, but think they should have.
The report, “Cyber Pulse: The State of Cybersecurity in Healthcare – Part 2,” from Kaspersky, uncovers several findings that directly correlate to the increasing number of hacking and IT related incidents occurring in healthcare organizations across North America.
