Lurie Children's Hospital Cyberattack Insights

Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago recently reported a cyber attack that caused it to "work offline." The hospital had to operate without using phones, emails, or other forms of communication technology.
This caused the hospital's operation to significantly slow down. Imagine being a doctor, or a patient in this scenario.
Looking ahead, we foresee a future where hospitals may be mandated by law to adhere to robust cybersecurity frameworks. This is already evident in the defense sector with CMMC being the law of the land for defense contractors. We anticipate a similar expansion to other areas of the government, as they recognize the effectiveness of such measures in protecting companies from cyber threats.
At Xact Cybersecurity, we believe it's high time for enhanced security measures to safeguard sensitive health information. The safety of patient records and the smooth operation of healthcare facilities should never be compromised.
