Establish Your Healthcare IT Security to Combat Phishing, Spoofing, and Ransomware Attacks
Healthcare has emerged as one of the most targeted industries globally. Following the Covid-19 pandemic, prioritizing healthcare cybersecurity solutions and adhering to best practices has become imperative for organizations worldwide.
According to the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), bad actors are actively targeting healthcare organizations of all types and sizes, regardless of whether they are public or private, rural or urban. Previously considered a neutral zone, the healthcare sector is now facing diminishing tolerance from hackers.
Governing bodies within healthcare institutions must grasp the risks posed by ransomware, phishing, medical device compromise, and other cyberattacks.
DMARC, an email authentication protocol, can significantly enhance healthcare cybersecurity by protecting organizations from email-borne attacks that impact critical aspects of healthcare operations. Below are some of the challenges healthcare cybersecurity companies need to address.
Ransomware and phishing pose serious threats to patient health information in digital form. Cyberattacks can compromise patient databases and disrupt the seamless flow of patient care information exchange.
Protected Health Information (PHI) is governed by the HIPAA Privacy Rule, which dictates which entities have access to patient information and how they must use and safeguard it. Email-borne attacks can potentially expose this sensitive information, highlighting the importance of robust cybersecurity measures in healthcare organizations.
The HIPAA Security Rule encompasses the subset of the HIPAA Privacy Rule, specifically focusing on electronic protected health information (e-PHI). Implementing DMARC can serve as an initial step in achieving HIPAA compliance by safeguarding email communications.
Healthcare institutions are susceptible to financial fraud propagated through email. Spear phishing attacks targeting organization executives and finance team members can have devastating consequences for healthcare institutions of all sizes.
We have created a video illustrating how healthcare institutions and their patients are vulnerable to phishing attacks. While the animation features a fictitious hospital and phishing incident, the threat is genuine—hundreds of such attacks occur weekly.
Watch the video to learn about our recommended solution: email authentication.
Identifying top-tier healthcare security solution providers to safeguard all facets of your organization protection is paramount. Properly configuring email authentication protocols and securing your domain infrastructure are critical. Whether you utilize email for communicating with patients, vendors, or partners, it serves as a communication channel that could potentially expose sensitive data such as patient information databases, personally identifiable information, contracts, billing details, and other information subject to HIPAA compliance.

YOUR DMARCs dedicated research team conducted a comprehensive examination of DMARC adoption within the global healthcare sector. By meticulously selecting a diverse array of domains from prominent healthcare institutions in the US, Europe, and globally, our study offers a representative snapshot of the industrys security practices.
Alarmingly, our findings reveal a stark reality: a mere fraction of healthcare institution domains have embraced the stringent protocols of DMARC. Specifically, only 18% of US-based domains, 7.2% of European counterparts, and a mere 9% globally have implemented the highest level of DMARC policy. This glaring gap underscores the vulnerability of healthcare organizations to malicious email-based cyberattacks.
