According to a report from Cynerio, more than 50 percent of Internet-connected medical devices and other IoT devices in hospital settings have critical security issues. The report notes that IV pumps account for 38 percent of hospitals’ IoT footprints, and that 73 percent of those devices have vulnerabilities that could pose a threat to patient safety or expose data. In addition, many departments are running devices that are based on operating systems older than Windows 10.
