Second-annual report by SecureLink and Ponemon Institute notes that the financial impact of cyberattacks averaged $9M
Austin, TX — July 20, 2022 — SecureLink, a leader in critical access management, and Ponemon Institute today released a new report titled “Treading Water: The State of Cybersecurity and Third-Party Remote Access Risk,” which reveals that organizations have made no significant progress in mitigating cyberattacks and have, in fact, experienced an increase in third-party attacks over the past year.
Six months ago, more than 5.1 million healthcare records were breached in a single month. As shocking as that number seems, it wasn’t much more significant than the 12-month average of almost 4 million. Not surprisingly, healthcare organizations have turned to cyber insurance to protect themselves from the enormous cost and liabilities associated with such attacks.
Whether unlocking a smartphone or logging into an app, facial recognition has become a bigger part of how people access technology. Breached credentials remain a common factor in cyberattacks. And the demand for advanced and secure authentication meth-ods like biometrics has only grown as part of the solution, offering usable and effective options to combat cyber threats.

Cybersecurity leaders everywhere understand the constant threat of cyberattacks, which leave a myriad of consequences in their wake – from reputational damage and lost revenue to data loss and internal fatigue. In fact, 45% of information security professionals have contemplated quitting the industry altogether due to stress caused from the unrelenting threat of ransomware and “always on call” expectations.
Healthcare is usually behind the curve when it comes to adopting new technology - and that has been no different with cloud computing. But as cyberattacks rage and the pandemic continues to swamp hospitals everywhere, health systems have come under fire, forcing industry leaders to reconsider their approach to cybersecurity.

From the development of the EMR to the growth of telehealth, the digital environment for healthcare has evolved tremendously over the last few years. So, it’s no surprise that IT spending is set to increase by 12.3% for cloud computing, 9.7%, for digital transformation, and 9.7% for security software this year. Though healthcare organizations have historically been slower to adopt cloud, we’re now seeing renewed interest.
