FBI Warns Healthcare Industry of Cyber Security Risks

(April 23 & 24, 2014)

The FBI has issued two private industry notices (PINs) to the healthcare
sector, warning that cyber attacks against devices and systems in that
industry are likely to increase. The transition to electronic health
records (EHRs), weak security, and the value of medical data on black
market are all indicators that the number of attacks will rise.

Healthcare is lagging behind other sectors in cyber security.
