Study: Networks, devices vulnerable to security breaches

 Healthcare organizations of all kinds are being routinely attacked and compromised by increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks, according to a new study by Norse, a Silicon Valley cybersecurity firm, and SANS, a security research institute. Networks and Internet-connected devices in hospitals and other settings are under siege and in many cases have been infiltrated. From September 2012 to October 2013, 375 healthcare organizations in the U.S. had been compromised, and in many cases are still compromised because they have not yet detected the attacks, the researchers found.
