Rising above the digital tug-of-war

WHILE no industry is immune, some sectors face greater data breach risks. Health care institutions hold one of the most sensitive types of personal and medical data, making them a prime target for attackers seeking financial gain.

Recent technological advancements have intensified a digital tug-of-war that both threatens and fortifies the strength of our data privacy guardrails. The fast-tracked deployment of technologies such as generative AI often comes with minimal protocols, which poses privacy, security and even ethical risks. Robust data protection and cybersecurity methods should be put in place to ensure more rigorous means of securing data, to withstand new threats brought about by digital transformation.
