In the rapidly evolving healthcare sector, the rise of digital solutions has brought significant advances in patient care, operational efficiency and data-driven decision-making. As these digital platforms proliferate, however, so do the associated cybersecurity risks. Two major instances that highlight the growing systemic threats to healthcare entities are the attacks on dependent systems such as Change Healthcare as well as the illegal data collection practices through tools like Meta Pixel.
Both cases illustrate the need for healthcare organizations to remain vigilant against systemic vulnerabilities, as the impact of breaches in interconnected systems can be devastating, and even life-threatening. In this article, Jacquie Shapiro; Senior Director, Reinsurance and Programs, Tokio Marine HCC, Cyber & Professional Lines; explores these as case studies.
