The Cyber Pulse Check: Is Your Healthcare System at Risk?
Technology usually isn’t the first word that comes to mind when thinking about healthcare.
Until your stethoscope requires two-factor authentication.
The truth is cyber threats are changing how every healthcare organization thinks (and responds) to ransomware attacks. From data management to network security, there’s a new level of risk that is forcing these organizations, especially healthcare, to shut systems offline.
Let’s look at the numbers:
- 74% of attacked organizations, particularly in the healthcare industry, report being targeted multiple times
- 40% of healthcare entities have suffered a data loss
- 29% of healthcare organizations are forced to take systems offline after a data loss
The reality is that healthcare technology is only as powerful as the security measures built around it. When those measures aren’t in place, even the most innovative solutions leave systems vulnerable.
For example, 85% of companies in the U.S. and U.K. experienced ransomware attacks within the past year, with healthcare organizations being among the most affected. On top of that, 35% of these healthcare entities reported being attacked simultaneously by multiple threat groups.
Diagnosing Your Healthcare Security: The Checkup It Needs
Long gone are the days of all-in-one security solutions. Healthcare security systems need more than a complex password or two-factor authentication. It’s about your data and network security staying up to date with robust, compliant, and custom security protocols.
It’s about having tailored managed services that are held to a standard as high as your healthcare organization. Considering the millions of dollars lost to security breaches every year, the question shouldn’t be, “Is our security up to date?” but rather, “Is our tailored security designed to empower our employees to protect the privacy of our patients?”
That shift in perspective is the heart of healthcare security. It’s exactly where Focus Solutions steps in, helping organizations like yours build systems that protect patient data and empower your team to deliver care with confidence.
We create tailored managed services for healthcare providers. Instead of a security prognosis your healthcare system fears may happen, you have a healthcare infrastructure where threats are anticipated, not just reacted to.
How Focus Solutions Protects the Heart of Your Business
- Tailored Security Solutions: Every healthcare organization has its own security challenges. That’s why our team helps implement a solution that actually fits your setup, addresses your vulnerabilities, and helps you stay ahead of data risks. It’s security that empowers your team.
- Comprehensive Entra ID Protection: Entra ID is the front door to your organization, which is exactly why attackers love kicking it in. Focus Solutions keeps that door locked, guarded, and reinforced. We monitor and protect your Entra ID environment, so your team stays connected and your identity stays intact.
- Robust Data Backup Systems: Over half of organizations don’t have a real identity backup system. That’s like running a hospital without a generator. We create reliable, secure backups into your setup so when trouble hits, you bounce back fast without data worries or operational blackout.
- Continuous Threat Monitoring and Assessment: Cyber threats evolve faster than a bad cold. Our team stays ahead with ongoing assessments and real-world testing to catch vulnerabilities before they’re exploited. Think of us as your security pit crew, always checking under the hood while you keep driving forward.
- Empowering Staff Through Training: Most security training is forgettable and ignored. We make it practical and empowering. From phishing awareness to password hygiene, we help your team spot scams faster and smarter.
- Incident Response Planning: If your plan for a cyberattack is “hope it doesn’t happen,” that’s not a plan. We help you build a clear, ready-to-roll response strategy so your team knows what to do, when to do it, and how to bounce back fast. No chaos. No confusion. Just clarity.
- Compliance Isn’t Optional—It’s Critical: HIPAA, HITECH, or other compliance regulations can feel overwhelming. But we make it simpler. Our services are built with compliance to help you stay ahead of the rules, avoid fines, and protect patient trust.
