The healthcare sector continues to face evolving cybersecurity threats, with a decrease in ransomware attacks but an increase in fileless attacks. Insider breaches by employees are a consistent threat, emphasizing the need for ongoing security training and education. Organizations should focus on user entity behavioral analytics (UEBA) to identify illicit activity. While investing in new security tools is important, organizations must evaluate their needs and focus on solving specific problems rather than looking for a one-size-fits-all solution. Advancements in security tools, such as AI, machine learning, and biometric authentication, can help bolster network vulnerabilities. However, organizations must also consider securing user identities and data as they transition to the cloud. Due diligence is necessary when considering new tools and balancing the budgetary limitations. Overall, cybersecurity must be dynamic and adaptable to keep pace with evolving threats.
