Healthcare IT Security Services – Market Trends

20 Sep 2017
by Abhishek Singh, Jimit Arora, Nitish Mittal

Healthcare IT security has become a key strategic priority for C-level executives across payer and provider enterprises, given the recent high-level security breaches in the industry. CISOs realize that these breaches have long-ranging impact, and are trying to safeguard their enterprises against internal and external threats. The rapid digitalization has made their job even more complex, as proliferation of digital touch-points (IoT devices, mobile devices, and social media) have rendered traditional enterprise security and risk mitigation strategies obsolete.

Technology complexities associated with security service deployment and lack of internal skills are pushing enterprises to increasingly seek third-party support for security services. Service providers are beefing up their global security service delivery capabilities and coverage, expanding their partnership networks to align with next-generation security requirements of clients, and investing in nurturing their security services talent in order to stay relevant.
