HOW ARE CONCERNS RELATING TO CYBERSECURITY AND DATA INTEGRITY ADDRESSED ?
The rise of IoT and smart health devices has not been without its disadvantages ; increased reliance on digital technology engenders a parallel rise in cyberattacks and their associated damages . “ Healthcare facilities are very attractive to cybercriminals due to the sensitive and valuable nature of patient data ,” says Hassman . “ In addition , hospitals form part of a country ’ s critical infrastructure and disruptions caused by cyberattacks can have devastating consequences . Apart from intentional attacks by cybercriminals , accidental data exposure can also be damaging , both in terms of patient privacy and the reputation of the facility .”
Therefore , a comprehensive risk management framework encompassing technical consideration , people and processes needs to be developed . Kumar references Altran ’ s contribution ( one of 26 consortium partners ) to the S3P platform - smart , safe and secure - as an example of end-to-end protection for data streams generated by multiple sources .
