Summary
the integration of artificial intelligence in healthcare cybersecurity is becoming increasingly important. The 2025 Healthcare Cybersecurity Benchmarking Study reveals that, despite some organizations making strides in adopting established frameworks like the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, a significant number still take a reactive approach to threats. Following a major breach at Change Healthcare in 2024, vulnerabilities within interconnected health systems and third-party vendors were spotlighted. The study highlights the need for improved practices in areas such as Supply Chain Risk Management and Asset Management, while organizations using the NIST framework reportedly experience less drastic increases in cybersecurity insurance costs.
