Cyber security for medical practices and pharmacies
Medical practices and pharmacies hold some of the most sensitive personal data there is. Patient records, prescription histories and clinical information are highly valuable to cybercriminals, whether for identity fraud, extortion or sale on the dark web.
Staff are often overstretched, systems can be outdated, and the need to keep services running means downtime from a ransomware attack carries consequences that go beyond the financial.

Cyber challenges for medical practices and pharmacies
Medical practices and pharmacies handle some of the most sensitive personal data imaginable, making them an attractive target for cybercriminals looking to exploit any weakness they can find.
Patient records, prescription data and medical histories are highly valuable to cybercriminals, and any breach can have serious consequences for both patients and the practice.
Many smaller practices and pharmacies operate with limited IT resource and budget, making it difficult to keep security measures up to date and in line with evolving threats.
Medical practices and pharmacies must comply with a range of regulatory requirements including GDPR and NHS DSP Toolkit standards.
Clinical systems and prescription management platforms are increasingly connected and digitised, creating new vulnerabilities that need to be identified and addressed.

Pharmacy2U
Founder
WorkNest Secure stand out in the field of penetration testing due to the skillset of people they have working there. We undertook a complex bespoke pentest with them, which required a lot of pre-work in order to make sure it was scoped correctly, and they took the time to come onsite to make sure all was correct prior to commencing.
From my experience with them, they are very intelligent people with a deep understanding of the security landscape, and we will continue to use them for future testing requirements.
