Basic best practices, such as backing up data, patching vulnerable systems, segmenting networks, whitelisting apps and training employees, are the keys to protecting healthcare data from ransomware.

Internet of Things (IoT) device protection and supply chain risks have emerged as top healthcare cybersecurity concerns, according to recent research.

The introduction of smart assistants into the workplace is inevitable, and while they do carry unique risks, they are no more severe than the risks associated with widely deployed IoT devices.

IT budgets are up, and so is hardware spending. As a result, emerging trends in information technology include a renewed focus on secure device disposal.

According to a new report, current health device regulations in the U.K. do not adequately consider how poor digital security affects patient privacy and safety.

To defeat increasingly sophisticated fraudsters, security teams should pair their fraud detection tools with a device ID spoofing mechanism that automatically adapts to new threats.

Secondhand mobile device security is a struggle for many, according to new research. Data found that 40 percent of reused devices still contain old PII.

Disposing of your device securely means wiping old data, deauthorizing account access and finding an ecologically sound home for the old device.

Government agencies, customers and device manufacturers must develop better IoT security practices to protect the growing number of connected devices.

It has never been more important to secure your IoT deployment. Challenges include lack of visibility, inexperience and the IoT's increasing complexity.
