HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY

Multi-Signal Managed Detection and Response for Healthcare Delivery Organizations

The healthcare sector plays a central role in people’s lives, supporting their health & well-being, and the nation’s productivity. You are in a uniquely vulnerable position when it comes to managing cyber threats as an attack to your operation can mean a question of life or death. eSentire Managed Detection and Response (MDR) proactively detects, disrupts, and remediates cybersecurity threats targeting healthcare delivery organizations before they impact your patients or operations.

Get Started

Healthcare delivery organizations operate under the constant threat of costly and disruptive cyberattacks

Patient care has been both empowered by technology and put at risk by it. No healthcare organization is too small or too big to be targeted by cyberattackers. Individual practices and large regional providers with multiple facilities will both face the risk of threat actors exploiting vulnerable systems and fallible human nature. Attackers target healthcare organizations to take advantage of:

Protected health information (PHI) as it is more valuable than other types of information
The lack of due diligence with 3rd party partners to protect sensitive information
Insufficient investment in hiring enough skilled healthcare cybersecurity practitioners
Insufficient investment in security tools and technology to mitigate a data breach
Outdated systems, applications, and technologies
The difficulty healthcare organizations have in identifying malicious insiders

As public healthcare breaches continue to make national headlines, regulatory bodies increase penalties, and healthcare cyber threats expand, managing these cyber risks is critical to your operations and ability to deliver patient services. Many healthcare delivery organizations are turning to outsourced threat hunting services like Managed Detection and Response (MDR) for protection.

How eSentire Managed Detection and Response Can Help

Cybersecurity issues in healthcare are unique and require an experienced MDR provider. We are recognized globally as the Authority in Managed Detection and Response (MDR) because we hunt, investigate, and stop cyber threats before they become business-disrupting events. In fact, eSentire was founded in 2001 to secure the environments of the world’s most targeted industry - financial services. Now with 2000+ customers across 80+ countries globally, we have scaled to deliver cybersecurity services across highly regulated industries with a proven track record of success in securing businesses across the healthcare sector including healthcare institutions, medical technology providers, and pharmaceutical companies. This included defending our healthcare customers from a 200% increase in cyberattacks during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Over 2.5 million patients/year treated in facilities under our protection
5 million + incremental health records secured every year
The leading air medical service amassing over 150,000 flight hours and saving 70,000+ people each year

Healthcare Threat Intelligence Report

Code Grey: Building Cyber Resilience for Healthcare Delivery Organizations

Since healthcare delivery organizations (HDOs) store high volumes of electronic protected health information (ePHI) and personal identifiable information (PII) for their patients, they have become high-value targets for cyberattacks.

In this healthcare threat intelligence report, we explore the cyber threats against healthcare providers, why healthcare is a prime target for cybercrime operators and how healthcare organizations can manage their risk to reduce the likelihood and severity of cybersecurity incidents.

Key takeaways from the report include:

The four primary reasons that cybercriminals target HDOs: rise of the ‘as-a-service’ business models, shifting to a cloud strategy, an expansive threat surface, and under-trained staff
The most common initial access vectors used to deploy malware and how the intrusion ratios for the healthcare industry compares to other industries based on observations from eSentire’s Threat Response Unit (TRU)
Recommendations on how industry security leaders can build resilience against ransomware and prevent operational disruption

Healthcare Industry Cybersecurity FAQ

What is a healthcare cybersecurity program?

Protect patient healthcare information
Prevent operational disruption
Avoid regulatory and compliance violations
Defend against third-party risk
Mitigate ransomware attacks

Why is healthcare cybersecurity important?

Healthcare cybersecurity is important because healthcare delivery organizations operate under the constant threat of costly and disruptive cyberattacks. The stakes are exceptionally high – cyberattacks not only inflate healthcare costs and compromise sensitive patient data, but they also jeopardize patient care and lives.

Additionally, the effects of a cyberattack against healthcare delivery organizations lead to financial costs, regulatory fines and penalties, reputational damage and in some cases, complete operational shutdown.

What is HIPAA cybersecurity compliance?

HIPAA’s Security Rule helps protect patients’ electronic protected health information while fostering improvement in the quality and efficiency of patient care. Under this rule, healthcare delivery organizations must implement the required safeguards or face penalties for non-compliance.

Find out how to adhere to compliance requirements for HIPAA administrative and technical safeguards with 24/7 cybersecurity services in our HIPAA Compliance Checklist.
