The purpose of this research is to provide an update to the industry’s first study on the impact of ransomware on patient safety, titled The Impact of Ransomware on Healthcare During COVID-19 and Beyond, September 2021. That seminal study qualitatively demonstrated a correlation between ransomware and various impacts to patient care, including increased patient transfers/diversions, delays in procedures and tests, increased complications from medical procedures, and higher mortality rates. This updated study, according to survey respondents, shows ransomware continues to impact patient care, and seeks to understand how cybersecurity peer benchmarking can help healthcare organizations strengthen their cybersecurity posture to help reduce the risk of a ransomware attack and its potential impact on patient care.
