controls around data segregation and
infrastructure security. Constant
monitoring practices are required to
ensure that the controls are active and
functioning in a desirable manner. The
healthcare organizations should
influence certain security incident
recognition and response programs to
mitigate the cyber security risks.
Additionally, operations regarding
crisis management must be integrated
into the flexible business strategies.
The healthcare organizations need to
implement adaptive technologies to
manage identities and to regulate the
information being accessed. They
should undertake operations to detect
the loopholes and vulnerabilities in the
mobile apps that would surely reduce

cyber security.
Monitoring Internal Systems & Logs
The healthcare organizations need to
invest in the evolving technologies that
enable them to spontaneously scan and
secure data, log data modification
activities as they arise, and instantly
alert their IT teams about the
fraudulent behavior. These teams must
focus on detecting the loopholes with
the help of an automated bot or a
specific process that intermittently run
through the system, combating the
threats. This will help the organization
to spot the vulnerabilities and save
time, resolving it before enough
damage. Monitoring the logs is a key
component of an organization’s
compliance initiatives. This would help
the healthcare organizations to
properly audit and prepare a report on
the file access which can detect illegal
activity by the users and other major
cyber threats.
The Future Innovations
The increasing complexities of IT
landscape in the healthcare
organizations, the future is critical for
the security teams to choose the exact
processes and tools to defend the
organization from budding breaches.
The healthcare organizations in the
upcoming future are planning to design
robust systems and stronger encryption
algorithms to successfully safeguard
the cybercrime in the healthcare sector.
Soon there will be an introduction to
the new General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR) to replace the age-
old Data Protection Act, which would
increase the security of the personal
data and also its exploration.
