Cybersecurity in Healthcare Through the 7-S Model Strategy

Abstract

According to the 2019 HIMSS Cybersecurity Survey, most healthcare organizations are aware of the importance of cybersecurity, with 96% of respondents indicating that cybersecurity was a priority for their organization. Despite this, the survey also found that healthcare organizations are not adequately prepared for cyberattacks, with only 39% reporting that they had a comprehensive cybersecurity plan. This paper uses the 7-S Model strategy as a foundation for strategy development for healthcare organizations in a post-COVID-19 world.
