Ransomware in Healthcare Facilities: The Future is Now

Marshall University, Nikki Spence, David P. Paul III, Alberto Coustasse

Reading Time: 1 min read
in Document, Healthcare, Paper, Ransomware

ABSTRACT

Ransomware is a type of malware used by cyber criminals who encrypt files and then extort money in return for unlocking those files. Without adequate disaster recovery and backup plans, many businesses are forced to pay the ransom.

We examine recent ransomware infections in healthcare settings, the liabilities and cost associated with such infections, and discuss possible risk mitigation tactics. Risks associated with ransomware attacks on healthcare facilities include financial, future business loss and damage to reputation.

Healthcare facilities should have a disaster plan with adequate data backups and educate employees who are the usual sources of ransomware attacks.
