India’s healthcare sector is responding urgently to a surge in cyberattacks, ramping up investments and deploying AI-driven solutions to safeguard patient data and clinical operations.
📊 Key Highlights:
1️⃣In 2024, 21.8% of all cyberattacks in India targeted the healthcare sector—the highest among industries
2️⃣ Nearly 92% of healthcare organizations experienced cyberattacks in the past year; over 67% faced ransomware incidents, and 90% of these affected hospitals.
3️⃣Due to these rising threats, hospitals now allocate 8–10% of their IT budgets to cybersecurity (up from 4–7% in 2021), with projections to reach 12–15% by 2027
4️⃣Demand for AI‑driven security tools—like advanced SIEM—is up 40% year-on-year since 2023.
🔍 Why It Matters for Stakeholders:
1️⃣ Patient Safety at Risk: Ransomware incidents caused delays, complications, and even increased mortality—36% of facilities reported higher medical complications.
2️⃣ Regulatory Spotlight: Governance bodies may introduce stricter data protection mandates for healthcare infrastructure.
3️⃣ Budget Pressure: Rising security costs require optimized resource allocation and ROI through measured investment.
