Advantage and Blackberry Offer Two Months FREE Access to Endpoint Protection Platform to the Health Industry
The health industry is being specifically targeted by cybercriminals at all levels from small clinics to hospitals. With practices moving to video consultations and other forms of telemedicine, the risks are high.
Cases of ransomware have occurred in hospitals with hackers locking down systems such that patient records become impossible to access unless a ransom is paid to the criminals.
Many businesses in the industry have not had cybersecurity training and don’t have adequate systems in place.
