Transform your healthcare organization without jeopardizing data protection
Healthcare organizations manage ever-increasing amounts of data every day. And the amount of data in healthcare has increased exponentially due to the surge in digital healthcare services over the past year. Compared to other industries, healthcare organizations are not as digitally advanced so they will need to transform to meet modern expectations and standards.The use of cloud technology enables digital transformation and will lead to better outcomes in healthcare, but if not handled correctly, the move to the cloud can pose potential security risks. And the healthcare industry is a particularly attractive target for hackers anyway, as they can potentially obtain a large ransom from healthcare organizations if they threaten to release sensitive patient data.
