Cybersecurity for Healthcare
Healthcare has become one of the most targeted industries for cybercrime.
Ransomware, phishing, insider threats, medical device vulnerabilities, and supply chain attacks now threaten sensitive patient information. They also jeopardize clinical operations and patient safety.
Cybersecurity for Healthcare
Cyber Threats in Healthcare: Protecting Patient Data from Breaches and Attacks provides a practical roadmap.
Moreover, it guides Cybersecurity for Healthcare programs with balanced security, regulatory compliance, resilience, and quality patient care.
It supports practical implementation.
Drawing on years of cybersecurity leadership and consulting experience, Eric N. Peterson combines real-world attack case studies, industry best practices, and actionable implementation guidance to help healthcare organizations defend against today’s evolving threats. He emphasizes practical strategies organizations can apply immediately instead of focusing solely on theory.
Inside you’ll learn:
- How ransomware, phishing, insider threats, nation-state actors, and supply chain attacks target healthcare organizations
- Practical approaches to protecting electronic health records (EHRs), cloud environments, telehealth platforms, and connected medical devices (IoMT)
- Strategies for implementing layered security controls, Zero Trust principles, identity protection, and third-party risk management
- Guidance for navigating HIPAA, HITECH, GDPR, HITRUST, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and other healthcare security requirements
- How to build effective incident response, disaster recovery, and cyber resilience programs
- Best practices for healthcare security awareness training and developing a security-focused culture
- How artificial intelligence, 5G, IoMT, and emerging technologies are reshaping healthcare cybersecurity
- Ready-to-use checklists, security templates, policy examples, risk assessment tools, incident response playbooks, and implementation guides
Featuring real-world analyses of major healthcare cyber incidents—including Change Healthcare, Ascension Health, NHS/Synnovis, WannaCry, SolarWinds, SingHealth, Universal Health Services, Scripps Health, and others—this guide connects lessons learned with practical defensive strategies.
