SonicWall observed a 123% spike in IoT malware attack volume in healthcare, but a decrease in the number of organizations targeted.
IoT malware attacks in healthcare are becoming increasingly common, especially as connected health adoption continues to increase and threat actors find nontraditional attack vectors to exploit.
