Ransomware and data breaches are increasingly representing the highest cyber threats facing healthcare companies.
In 2020, PwC Hong Kong tracked multiple cyber incidents involving healthcare organizations where victims’ data was spilled online or the operations ground to a halt due to human-operated ransomware. The abundance of sensitive patient data healthcare organizations is storing, and their perceived level of cyber security maturity, makes them a likely target for political and financial motivated cyber threat actors alike.
In this talk, Mr. Kok Tin Gan will explore some of the most prominent cyber incidents involving health care organizations that PwC Hong Kong has tracked over the last 12 months. With the cyber incidents summary and live hacking demonstration, audience will get to know more about the latest hacking trends and related cyber threats, and also the key lessons that organizations in the sector should learn in order to increase their cyber security resilience.
