The report focuses on growth prospects, restraints, and analysis of the global healthcare cyber security market trends. The study provides Porter’s five forces analysis to understand the impact of various factors, such as bargaining power of suppliers, competitive intensity of competitors, threat of new entrants, threat of substitutes, and bargaining power of buyers on the global healthcare cyber security market share.
COVID-19 impact analysis
The International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) published an article in April 2020 warning of an estimated increase in the reports of cyber-attacks related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Healthcare providers nowadays have to protect their medical equipment and databases more than they ever had to. Moreover, the healthcare industry has seen a boom of IoT and cloud devices, furthering the risk of a cyber-attack. As the threat landscape is widening and cybercriminals are creating increasingly sophisticated tools and strategies to target healthcare businesses, acquire data access, and hold data & networks for ransom (ransomware attacks), the demand for healthcare cybersecurity solutions are on the rise.
Top Impacting Factors
Increased Number of Cyber-attacks and Regulatory Policies
The rise in the volume of cyber-threat vectors and attacks due to inadequate security measures is a major concern for the healthcare industry, which is projected to drive the use of security solutions. This has empowered the implementation of supporting government policies and measures to protect patient information from data breaches that is incentivizing healthcare providers to use advanced cyber security solutions to safeguard their healthcare data. For instance, the U.S. government established "the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)" in order to encourage healthcare institutions to keep healthcare data private and secret. Such factors contribute toward the growth of healthcare cyber security market size in the coming years.
Need for Improving Authentication and Management of Healthcare Services
Strong authentication functionality is needed by healthcare organizations to guarantee that only authorized personnel have access to internal networks or specialized apps. To prevent the risks associated with common password-based authentication such as credential theft, healthcare organizations have gradually shifted to multi-factor authentication. For most cases, multi-factor authentication is accomplished by adding another element to the usual username and password. This might be a hardware and software token, a biometric verification, or a device authentication step. The usage of authentication procedures to lower the risk of cyber-attacks encourages consumers to employ effective cyber security solutions and safeguard the overall healthcare infrastructure.
