The link between cyberattacks and mortality rates in healthcare

Daniel ShepherdSeptember 9, 2022, 11:59 amSeptember 9, 2022
Emile Abou Saleh, Regional Director, Middle East & Africa at Proofpoint.

Proofpoint, Inc., a leading cybersecurity and compliance company, and Ponemon Institute, a top IT security research organisation, today released the results of a new study on the effect of cybersecurity in healthcare. The report, “Cyber Insecurity in Healthcare: The Cost and Impact on Patient Safety and Care,” found that 89% of the surveyed organisations experienced an average of 43 attacks in the past 12 months, almost one attack per week. More than 20% of the organisations suffering the four most common types of attacks—cloud compromise, ransomware, supply chain, and business email compromise (BEC)/spoofing phishing—experienced increased patient mortality rates.

“As healthcare sector continues to offer life-critical services while working to improve treatment and patient care with new technologies, cybercriminals actors look to exploit the vulnerabilities that are coupled with these changes. This year’s Voice of the CISO report reveals that 50% of healthcare CISOs in the UAE feel at risk of suffering a material cyberattack in the next 12 months and only 38% of these CISOs feel prepared to cope with a targeted cyberattack”, said Emile Abou Saleh, Regional Director, Middle East & Africa at Proofpoint. “It is therefore imperative for the safety of patients, that healthcare providers in the region remain alert and foster a strong security culture in the industry through effective and ongoing security awareness training underpinned by a people-centric cybersecurity approach”.

This study, which surveyed 641 healthcare IT and security practitioners, found that the most common consequences of attacks are delayed procedures and tests, resulting in poor patient outcomes for 57% of the healthcare providers and increased complications from medical procedures for nearly half of them. The type of attack most likely to have a negative impact on patient care is ransomware, leading to procedure or test delays in 64% of the organisations and longer patient stays for 59% of them.

“The attacks we analysed put a significant strain on healthcare organisations’ resources. Their result is not only tremendous cost but also a direct impact on patient care, endangering people’s safety and wellbeing”, said Larry Ponemon, Chairman and Founder of the Ponemon Institute. “Most of the IT and security professionals regard their organisations as vulnerable to these attacks, and two-thirds believe that technologies such as cloud, mobile, big data, and the Internet of Things—which are all seeing increased adoption—further increase the risks to patient data and safety”.

Other key findings of the report are that:

  • The insecure Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is a top concern. Healthcare organisations have an average of more than 26,000 network-connected devices. While 64% of respondents are concerned about medical device security, only 51% include them in their cybersecurity strategy.
  • Healthcare organisations feel both most vulnerable to and most prepared for cloud compromise. Seventy-five percent of respondents say their organisations are vulnerable to a cloud compromise, and 54% of respondents say that in the past two years their organisations experienced at least one cloud compromise. Organisations within this group experienced an average of 22 such compromises in the past two years. But just as they are the most vulnerable, organizations are also the most prepared for a cloud compromise, with 63% focused on taking steps to prepare for and respond to these attacks.
  • Ransomware is the second-biggest vulnerability. Seventy-two percent of those surveyed believe their organisations are vulnerable to a ransomware attack, and 60% say this is the type of attack that concerns them the most. Consequently, 62% have taken steps to prevent and respond to ransomware.
  • Low preparedness puts patients at risk. Although 71% of participants feel they are vulnerable to supply chain attacks, and 64% feel the same about BEC and spoofing phishing, only 44% and 48% have a documented response to those attacks, respectively.
  • Training and awareness programs, along with employee monitoring, are the top two defences. Organisations recognise careless and negligent employees pose a significant risk. Fifty-nine percent address employees’ lack of awareness, with 63% of them conducting regular training and awareness programs and 59% monitoring employee actions.
  • Lack of funding and resource continue to be a challenge. Fifty-three percent of participants said a lack of in-house expertise is a challenge and 46% said they lack sufficient staffing, with both deficiencies negatively affecting cybersecurity posture.

“Healthcare has traditionally fallen behind other sectors in addressing vulnerabilities to the growing number of cybersecurity attacks, and this inaction has a direct negative impact on patients’ safety and wellbeing”, said Ryan Witt, Healthcare Cybersecurity Leader, Proofpoint. “As long as cybersecurity remains a low priority, healthcare providers will continue to endanger their patients. To avoid devastating consequences, healthcare organisations must understand how cybersecurity affects their patient care and take the steps toward better preparedness that protects people and defends data”.
