Ponemon Institute Survey of Over 500 Hospitals Reveals:

Healthcare IoT Risks Compromise Care

Cynerio’s latest report in collaboration with the Ponemon Institute shows that the cybersecurity industry isn’t doing enough to protect hospitals from attacks:

56
%

of hospitals have had their IoT/IoMT devices attacked in the past two years.

88
%

of hospital data breaches involve IoT devices.

47
%

of attacked hospitals pay the ransom when victimized by ransomware.

24
%

of hospitals had increased mortality rates after a cyberattack.

What Happens If Hospitals Don’t Address Healthcare IoT Risk?

An Inside Look at How Cynerio Stopped a Medical Device Zero-Day Vulnerability

JekyllBot:5 is a set of 5 critical vulnerabilities discovered by the Cynerio Live research team that enabled remote control of smart autonomous robots.

The vulnerabilities could have led to the disruption of patient medication delivery, shutdown of hospital elevators, and many other threats to patient care, safety, data, and health.

Microsegmentation in Healthcare

Among the most commonly recommended technical practices to prevent the impact of attacks is implementing a ZeroTrust architecture fueled by microsegmentation which has been shown to address 92% of device-level critical risks in healthcare environments.

This whitepaper covers healthcare-specific considerations and use cases to further illustrate the value of microsegmentation

Device Risks Enable Hospital Cyber Threats

Cynerio Research Shows Vulnerable Healthcare IoT Makes Hospitals an Attack Target

Network-connected medical devices have made patient care more streamlined and efficient but also expanded the attack surface.  As a result, the typical hospital environment is at greater risk of a data breach or having its infrastructure shut down by a ransomware attack:

Over 50% of healthcare IoT devices have a critical risk that would jeopardize patient health, safety or data if exploited.

Almost 75% of IV pumps have vulnerabilities that endanger patient safety.

More than 50% of oncology, pharmacology and lab devices run on versions of Windows that have reached end of life.

Move aside Urgent11 and Ripple20 – even in 2022, the most common healthcare IoT device risk is an insecure password!
