Are you cyber secure for patient online access?

A single compromised identity can put an entire organisation and its network of connections at risk. Cyber attackers have various ways to acquire prized credentials. Techniques such as phishing, keylogging, credential spraying, social engineering and identity theft and more, are all in play, according to the latest research1.
Just one accidental click on a malicious link in a legitimate-looking email can open the door to an intruder. Furthermore, as the ForgeRock report shows, Healthcare records are valuable and vulnerable since they contain date of birth and SSN information which can be used to commit fraudulent claims for equipment, services, and prescriptions2.
Phishing attacks, including email phishing, SMS “smishing,” and business email compromise (BEC), use social engineering to create a sense of urgency to trick people into revealing sensitive information, clicking links that download a malicious “payload, “or transferring money to fraudulent accounts.
