Ransomware: A Public Health Crisis

‍

Healthcare is under siege. Ransomware attacks impact more than IT systems—they delay critical care, increase patient mortality, overwhelm regional hospitals, and impose devastating financial costs. A single attack can cascade through entire healthcare ecosystems, threatening both lives and trust.

‍

This white paper shares:

• How ransomware contributes to measurable increases in patient deaths.

• The operational and financial toll on providers, especially small and rural hospitals.

• The ripple effects across entire regions when one hospital goes offline.

• Practical recommendations for executives, boards, and CISOs to strengthen resilience.

Download the white paper to understand why ransomware must be treated as a public health crisis—and what healthcare leaders and technology partners can do to protect patient lives and ensure continuity of care.
