Code Grey: Building Cyber Resilience for Healthcare Delivery Organizations

Since 2020, healthcare data breach costs have increased 53.3% to an average of $10.93 million USD.

Since healthcare delivery organizations (HDOs) store high volumes of electronic protected health information (ePHI) and personal identifiable information (PII) for their patients, they have become high-value targets for cyberattacks.

Although healthcare staff are focused on their mission critical goal of patient care, they generally only have a basic security awareness of cyber threats, making it easy for threat actors to target them with carefully crafted phishing messages and bypass traditional security controls.

In this healthcare threat intelligence report, we explore the cyber threats against healthcare providers, why healthcare is a prime target for cybercrime operators and how healthcare organizations can manage their risk to reduce the likelihood and severity of cybersecurity incidents.

Key takeaways from the healthcare threat intelligence report include:

  • The four primary reasons that cybercriminals target HDOs: rise of the ‘as-a-service’ business models, shifting to a cloud strategy, an expansive threat surface, and under-trained staff
  • The most common initial access vectors cybercriminals rely on to deploy malware based on observations from eSentire’s Threat Response Unit (TRU)
  • How the healthcare industry compares to other industries when it comes to the intrusion ratio
