Healthcare Industry Clients Name the Top Rated Cybersecurity Solutions, Software and Services, Reveals Black Book™ 2020 Survey
TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Black Book Market Research LLC received survey responses from 2,424 security professionals from 705 provider organizations to identify gaps, vulnerabilities and deficiencies that persist in keeping hospitals and physicians proverbial sitting ducks for data breaches and cyberattacks. Ninety-eight percent of IT professionals agreed with the sentiments that data attackers are outpacing their medical enterprises, holding providers at a disadvantage in responding to vulnerabilities.
A fragmented mix of 425 vendors offering data security services, core products and solutions, software, consulting and outsourcing received user feedback including large IT companies, mid and small security vendors and start-ups in the polling period Q1 2020 to Q4 2020.
"Most healthcare CISOs and CIOs have no choice but to leverage next-generation cybersecurity system tools and solutions in order to keep their provider organizations' data safe but also to stay solvent," said Doug Brown, President of Black Book™. "The threat landscape in healthcare has become fertile ground for malware, ransomware, breached medical records and patient privacy, phishing expeditions and cyberattacks with the COVID-era adoption of telehealth and remote patient monitoring in particular."
"The frank reality is that many cybersecurity solutions purchased just a year ago may already be outdated and deficient in combating developing hacks and breaches of 2021, and marginally performing hospitals face yet another threat to closure from related expenses and blows to the provider's reputation," said Brown. "Virtual patient consultations and telehealth to prevent the spread of the virus have expanded use of remote access systems which serve as entry points into the healthcare information platforms for cyberattacks."
Still, 33% of chief information officers with negative 2019 operating margins report slow or no progress towards orchestrating a proactive cybersecurity technology infrastructure to support their long-term protection efforts.
"Given the complexities of each individual health system and physician organization, implementing the right cybersecurity software and solutions in delicate sequence is crucial as to not create an even more adverse situation through the transition," said Brown. " The pandemic has also generated a tremendous amount of patient medical data stored by local, state and federal government agencies, as well as provider organizations which has seen an increase in malicious IT attacks permitted through less-secure technologies and interoperability connections."
In contrast, 98% of CIOs and CISOs in companies performing at margins supporting long-term viability (marked at over 4%) report successfully maintained cybersecurity programs and transformations initiated, with 2021 capital expenditures planned for upgraded tools such as cybersecurity analytics, network security, open source solutions, threat intelligence and cloud security.
