Abstract
This research explores a relatively unchartered area of electronic health records – security concerns for consumer access from personal devices. The healthcare industry has had increases in cyberattacks related to data breaches; with nearly two a day occurring on average. Additionally, ransomware attacks for healthcare entities have been at an all-time high. While HIPAA normally provides added protection for patients and healthcare entities, access via personal devices can sometimes fall outside of HIPAA jurisdiction. This research will provide more information related to access via unsecured home networks.
