Healthcare Data Breach Statistics

Abstract:

This is a compilation of healthcare data breaches and trends. There has been an upward trend of data breaches over the last decade. The adoption of data encryption has provided some protection, however hacking and ransomware attacks are still on the rise. Medical records have been increasingly exposed, with millions being impacted. With these increases, healthcare organizations are also improving at protection with awareness trainings and technologies monitoring medical record access.
