Outdated systems, information technology (IT) infrastructure, and medical devices may be catalysts for breaches by hackers. Acknowledgement of these risk factors allow healthcare system leaders an ability to plan and mitigate crucial system infrastructure against breaches. Researching different ways to solve this issue requires examination of mitigation tactics of different industries specifically ones that hold information on behalf of their constituents.
