Balancing innovation, security and compliance in the health sector
Health sectors around the world grapple with many of the same trends: rising healthcare costs, ageing populations, low digital maturity. Australia is no exception, despite consistently high global rankings in health system performance.
Concurrently, cybersecurity challenges have been mounting. Threats are becoming more sophisticated, while our growing reliance on digital technology creates new risks.
It was only a matter of time before those trajectories collided. While this trend predates and transcends the COVID-19 pandemic, the events of 2020 have sharpened a focus on how healthcare delivery and clinical research intersect with cybersecurity.
Read the full paper to examine the three-pronged set of challenges – innovation pressures, security risks, and tighter regulation – with a focus on how they impact different areas of Australia’s healthcare and life sciences ecosystems.
