FOI request conducted by Armis shows 41% of NHS Trusts don’t have a real-time risk register of all digital assets connected to their networks
London: Armis has released figures from a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to over 80 NHS Trusts that highlighted compliance and device management complexities could be creating critical cybersecurity gaps. The study confirmed that while 85% had identified all devices, including medical devices, on the Trust’s network, 41% had no real-time risk register of these assets and one in three did not identify and monitor all medical devices being used for remote patient management. With the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) predicted to rise to $158.1bn next year, an explosion of devices could put Trusts on the back foot if these security blind spots are not addressed.
