Abstract

Unauthorized access to protected information in the healthcare industry is what constitutes a cyber breach. The repercussions of a data breach in cyberspace might be quite severe. Legal fees and settlements can result in a significant amount of additional expenses for leaders of organizations. When managing a data breach requires advance planning, it is possible to build a proactive and aggressive strategy to secure the data. It is essential to incorporate cybersecurity safeguards into information technology (IT) systems throughout the development stage in order to reduce the risk of being attacked by cybercriminals. Administrators of healthcare facilities now have the responsibility of managing both technological systems and clinical systems, which is especially important in the high-risk and high-vulnerability cybersecurity environment that has emerged in the wake of COVID-19. A systems dynamics method is taken in this chapter to investigate potential cybersecurity threats in the healthcare industry.
