Healthcare Smart Security Market Analysis
The Smart Security Market in Healthcare Sector is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.5% over 2021 - 2026. Healthcare delivery organizations quickly scaled the implementations of technologies designed to support the response to COVID-19, including telehealth platforms and other patient support technologies. This included temporary care sites and labs, along with troves of connected devices and telehealth platforms desperately needed to support patient care.
- The healthcare industry has been witnessing a significant transformation over the course of the past few years, aided by the transformative nature of IoT technologies and advancements in computing power, wireless technologies, and data analytics techniques, such as Big Data, which is currently being deployed in the medical facilities and in the medical research sector for the analysis of a large amount of complex heterogeneous medical data that involves proteomics, genomics, and pharmacogenomics, across the world.
- Owing to the digital transformation, the healthcare industry is witnessing a shift in its operational process of information security and several healthcare breaches in the healthcare sector. As per the 2021 Protenus Breach Barometer Report, 40.7 million healthcare records were compromised in 2020, whereas health data breaches were up by 30% in 2020 compared to 2021.
- The latest developments in the healthcare sector, such as the deployment of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices, opened the door for improved patient care and increased potential threats. Embedded devices, such as pacemakers, also pose a threat to the patient's health, as they use radio or network technology.
- The healthcare industry is currently undergoing a transformation in cyber security strategy from a compliance and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-focused approach to a more comprehensive and security-centric approach. Going forward, the governments are expected to impose stricter regulations pertaining to the safety and security of IoMT devices. Moreover, healthcare providers will have to step up the game on cyber resilience.
