Why Small Medical Practices Are the #1 Target for Cyber Attacks
Most healthcare professionals assume hackers only go after hospitals and large systems.
The reality? Over 70% of healthcare data breaches now happen in small and mid-sized practices.
Why?
Because smaller offices often:
- Don’t have a dedicated IT or cybersecurity team
- Store valuable PHI (Protected Health Information) that sells for up to $250 per record on the black market
- Rely on their EMR and assume it’s fully secure (it’s not)
- Skip basic protections like encryption, backups, and 2-factor authentication
A single click on a phishing email, or one outdated computer, can shut down an entire practice — often permanently.
Cybersecurity isn’t just about technology — it’s about protecting your patients, your reputation, and your livelihood.
At Cy-Hive, we help medical practices stay compliant, secure, and confident knowing their systems, staff, and patients are protected.
Awareness is step one. Action is step two.
If your practice hasn’t had a security assessment in the past year, it’s time.
