Healthcare providers across the United States have rapidly expanded their digital systems to support patient treatment, data exchange, billing, telehealth, and clinical operations. Electronic health records (EHR), telemedicine platforms, medical IoT devices, cloud-hosted patient management solutions, insurance portals, and laboratory systems are now core to modern healthcare delivery. With this shift comes increased cyber risk. Conducting a structured security maturity assessment enables healthcare organizations to understand their cybersecurity posture, evaluate compliance readiness, identify vulnerabilities across clinical and operational environments, and build a roadmap toward cyber resilience.
The healthcare sector is one of the most targeted industries for cyberattacks due to the high financial and strategic value of protected health information (PHI). Cybercriminals leverage ransomware, phishing, credential theft, API exploitation, and medical device vulnerabilities to infiltrate hospitals, clinics, and healthcare supply chain providers. PHI and EHR data are monetizable on the dark web, making healthcare systems a prime target for extortion and theft. Without defined cybersecurity maturity levels, healthcare organizations may lack essential controls such as identity governance, encryption policies, network segmentation, incident response procedures, and vendor risk management.
Security maturity assessments provide structured visibility across people, process, and technology layers. Instead of focusing solely on technical vulnerabilities, they evaluate whether cybersecurity governance frameworks are documented, repeatable, measurable, and aligned with industry benchmarks. This broader perspective helps healthcare leaders understand gaps in cyber readiness, investment priorities, and compliance obligations tied to patient data protection.

Healthcare organizations must also adhere to strict regulatory and compliance mandates. In the U.S., frameworks such as HIPAA, HITECH, CMS requirements, state-level privacy laws, and—in some cases—HITRUST certification govern how PHI must be stored, accessed, transmitted, and secured. A security maturity assessment helps healthcare organizations prepare for compliance audits, reduce violation risk, and demonstrate that cybersecurity controls meet regulatory and privacy expectations.
Telehealth adoption, cloud migration, and remote clinical coordination have also expanded the healthcare ecosystem. Providers now interact with insurers, laboratories, pharmacies, and external care networks through APIs and shared platforms. These interconnected environments require strong cybersecurity maturity to prevent lateral breaches and supply chain exposure.
