Big data analytics in e- healthcare
Hello……
Having read through your article, I concur with you that healthcare professionals can greatly benefit from the use of big data in the healthcare sector in the collection of the individual patient’s data as well as putting together the heterogeneous data that is emanating from different sources would lead to the improvement of health insights as well as providing better insights to the causes of diseases and their better-suited drugs. Additionally, as far as the benefits of big data analysis are concerned in healthcare, another benefit is that it cuts offers cost reduction. Through the insights provided by the big data from the e- healthcare systems, the healthcare organization can be able to identify some of the areas that cost reduction is needed, either being the operational procedures, diagnostic tests or admission rates. In this way, big data analysis helps the healthcare organization can be able to maximize profits while cutting down on the costs.
Threat modeling in healthcare
Hello……
I have read your article on threat modeling in the healthcare sector, and I concur with you that threat modeling aids in the identification of the threats and vulnerabilities as well as it would cause on an organization or a system and their mitigation technique as well. Moreover, it helps in identifying the threat access points in the assets as well as providing a list of the potential threats. Additionally, in the healthcare system, Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) based threat modeling technique is also another threat model that would be recommended to be used in healthcare. Having been developed by the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology), the threat model covers known vulnerabilities. This aids the information security teams in the threat identification, identify the impacts as well as the measures to counter the threats. It also allows the security team to make modifications to the risk scores within the system.
