Abstract:
The number of information security threats in healthcare information systems is increasing tremendously. There are various factors that contribute to these information security threats; most researchers are mainly focused on certain factors such as virus attacks and malware. Thus, certain important factors may have still remained unexplored. In addition, the lack of tools and technologies can also contribute to the limited number of threats recorded in the healthcare system. In this paper, we summarize the security threats in online banking and healthcare information systems (HIS) and analyze the relationship of risk factors through comparison. The findings will serve as recommendations for healthcare service organizations to fill the technology gap between the online banking and HIS security systems.
