Cybersecurity and Digital Health Information

As the technologies used in health care expand, so too do cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Increasingly, healthcare actors use electronic health records (EHRs), artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, and telehealth services to provide and facilitate care.

While these technologies have their advantages, stakeholders have noted they also increase the number of potential cybersecurity weaknesses an entity may be exposed to through greater technological complexity and the number of actors with which an entity may interact.
