Healthcare companies play a critical role in protecting sensitive patient data, payment information, and ensuring HIPAA compliance. Cybersecurity is vital to maintaining patient trust, avoiding legal repercussions, and ensuring uninterrupted care, as demonstrated by attacks on MedStar Health and Premera Blue Cross.
Hackers target healthcare companies not only for financial gain but also for geopolitical and ideological reasons, making compliance with HIPAA, PII, and PCI standards even more crucial. Attack Surface Management (ASM) offers a holistic approach to assessing risks from a hacker's perspective, resulting in a stronger security posture. By identifying vulnerabilities, proactively detecting and responding to threats, and safeguarding compliance, ASM minimizes risks like those faced in real-world attacks.
ASM not only ensures operational continuity but also contributes to better healthcare and potentially saves lives by maintaining robust security and regulatory standards. By continuously monitoring the attack surface, healthcare organizations can identify vulnerabilities in medical devices, systems, and software that could compromise patient data and care. By understanding the unique challenges of the healthcare industry, ASM enables executives and business managers to trust in their company's security, resilience, and ability to provide exceptional patient care.
