Abstract

Today healthcare system is considered one of the most vulnerable systems for cyber attackers. This is because healthcare system deals with highly sensitive data such as payment information, patient's history, patient's private information and so on. In terms of cyberattacks, healthcare systems result in significant damage to both organizations and patients. The goal of this study is to discuss why we need to increase the security in healthcare system and determine how to increase the security in healthcare infrastructure.
