潜水洞察：

The survey, which collected responses from nearly 650 IT and security practitioners, aimed to determine if the sector had made progress addressing cyber risks. Cyberattacks have become an increasingly serious challenge for healthcare organizations as the number of incidents rise.

这项调查收集了近650名IT和安全从业人员的回复，旨在确定该行业在应对网络风险方面是否取得了进展。随着事件数量的增加，网络攻击已成为医疗保健组织日益严峻的挑战。

Attacks on hospitals can limit access to critical technology systems and patient information, but cyberattacks on vendors or suppliers can be disruptive as well. For example, the incident at technology firm and payment processor earlier this year Change Healthcare slowed reimbursement to providers for weeks..

对医院的攻击可能会限制对关键技术系统和患者信息的访问，但对供应商或供应商的网络攻击也可能具有破坏性。例如，今年早些时候发生在技术公司和支付处理器Change Healthcare的事件，将医疗服务提供商的报销速度拖慢了数周。。

Recovering from a cyberattack can be pricey, according to the survey. The average cost for organizations’ single most expensive cyberattack over the past 12 months was $4.7 million, a 5% decrease from last year.

调查显示，从网络攻击中恢复可能代价高昂。过去12个月，各组织发动的一次最昂贵的网络攻击的平均成本为470万美元，比去年下降了5%。

Yet, healthcare organizations face significant challenges to improving their cybersecurity, even as companies invest more money in information technology.

然而，尽管公司在信息技术方面投入了更多资金，但医疗保健组织在提高网络安全方面仍面临重大挑战。

The average annual IT budget is $66 million, but 40% of organizations reported their cyber budgets were still insufficient, and 42% said their organizations didn’t have enough staff. More than half of respondents said they lacked in-house cybersecurity expertise.

平均每年的IT预算为6600万美元，但40%的组织表示其网络预算仍然不足，42%的组织表示其员工不足。超过一半的受访者表示，他们缺乏内部网络安全专业知识。

However, using artificial intelligence could be beneficial for healthcare organizations looking to boost their cybersecurity, according to the survey. More than half of IT professionals said their organizations had embedded AI in cybersecurity.

然而，根据调查，使用人工智能可能对寻求提高网络安全的医疗保健组织有益。超过一半的IT专业人士表示，他们的组织已将人工智能嵌入网络安全。

But IT professionals also noted risks to integrating AI in their cybersecurity practices. Sixty-three percent of respondents reported it’s difficult or very difficult to safeguard confidential and sensitive patient data used in AI.

但IT专业人士也指出，将人工智能整合到他们的网络安全实践中存在风险。63%的受访者表示，很难或很难保护AI中使用的机密和敏感患者数据。

AI has become a hot topic generally in healthcare, but some experts and lawmakers have raised concerns about accuracy, bias and patient data privacy when it comes to integrating the technology in the sector.

人工智能已成为医疗保健领域的热门话题，但一些专家和立法者在将该技术整合到该领域时，对准确性、偏见和患者数据隐私提出了担忧。
