Although 80% of healthcare systems in a recent HIMSS Market Intelligence survey report concerns regarding security attacks to medical devices, 77% surveyed don’t include security for operational technology (OT) devices – like MRI machines and other medical devices – belonging to the Internet of Things (IoT) and Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) in their IT budgets at all. This presents a serious security risk. Bridging the gap between operations and security teams can help organizations contain the risk and protect patients’ data.
This white paper examines how:
- Unsecured medical devices belonging to the Internet of Things (IoT) and Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) create vulnerabilities for healthcare systems
- The HIMSS Market Intelligence survey showed a disconnect between concern over security attacks to medical devices and budget allocations for IoMT/IoT device security
- Nuvolo’s three-step process can help healthcare organizations protect their OT devices and bridge the communications gap between departments
