The 2025 Healthcare Cybersecurity Benchmarking Study, a collaboration between KLAS Research, Censinet, and the American Hospital Association, evaluates the cybersecurity preparedness of 69 healthcare and payer organizations in the wake of the 2024 Change Healthcare breach. The study highlights that while organizations are adopting frameworks like NIST CSF 2.0, HPH Cybersecurity Performance Goals, HICP, and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, significant gaps remain in third-party risk management and asset management. Notably, organizations utilizing NIST CSF 2.0 as their primary framework report lower increases in cybersecurity insurance premiums, indicating a tangible benefit of robust cybersecurity practices. The report also underscores the importance of cross-departmental ownership in AI governance to address risks related to data bias, transparency, and ethics.
