Overcome the obstacle of Cloud Security in HealthTech with Comprinno

Confidentiality of Healthcare information is sacrosanct and secure data sharing between relevant stakeholders should be enabled. Apart from sharing confidential data, doctors, nurses and patients should also be able to remotely access medical reports and records. HealthTech companies need to adhere to strict regulatory compliance like HIPAA.

As per research, a healthcare data breach comes with a hefty price tag, to the tune of $7.1 million per breach.

In the recent past, healthcare data breaches have increased multifold and impacted as many as 80 million people as per a survey by Guardian. Sensitive information like patient identification numbers, insurance information and medical history falling under the Personal Identifiable Information (PII) category, has been compromised. As per a recent report from SecurityScorecard, healthcare is ranked 9th out of all industries, in terms of overall security ranking. Identity theft remains a nagging problem affecting healthcare companies.

HIPAA Journal states that with 686 data breaches, 2021 has been the worst year for data breaches in healthcare.?

Remember the hacking incident of Florida Healthy Kids Corporation exposing the confidential data of almost 3.5 million individuals.

In a data breach unprecedented in its scale in India, a large multi-specialty private hospital in Kerala had its complete patient records from the last five years—involving hundreds of thousands of test results, scans, prescriptions, etc.—leaked on the internet, all of it searchable by a unique patient ID.
