Protecting Against the Hidden Healthcare Risk: Printing and Imaging Devices
- By Mark Gross, Senior Product Manager at Kofax
Healthcare data breaches are often the result of unsecure devices and the failure of employees to follow best practices. Two-thirds of UK healthcare organisations reported a breach in 2019, according to a cybersecurity survey conducted by Clearswift. According to the think tank, Parliament Street’s analysis of 68 UK National Health Service (NHS) trusts, 162,000 documents went missing in the fiscal year 2017-2018. This is in addition to 702,000 pieces of paperwork the trusts had already known to be lost.
