Internet of Medical Things exposes healthcare facilities' security weaknesses, according to an article on the Health IT Management website.
With exposure to the Internet comes risk of hacking, viruses, malware and ransomware.
Although no credible reports exist showing the hacking of medical equipment in an effort to harm patients, the risk exists and worries cybersecurity experts. Previous medical device hacks focused on stealing patient information for financial gain.
Recent infiltrations of healthcare networks through malware worry many provider organizations, yet the resources devoted to cybersecurity lag the needed investment.
