You worked hard to build your healthcare business

Let’s keep it safe

According to Business Victoria, 43% of cyberattacks target small to medium-sized businesses. The attacks have become so frequent that daily reports of “another data breach” aren’t even news anymore. As the larger Enterprises have locked down or hardened their networks the criminals are switching to the next good opportunity – Your practice, with patient data and financial details becoming a more and more attractive catch.

But what healthcare business owners need to know is that a vast proportion of cybersecurity incidents are the result of internal security issues that no firewall or antivirus could have prevented. The tools and processes to protect from this new heightened danger are now available to small businesses. IT Delivery and our Healthcare IT brands Cybersecurity service strengthen your IT environment’s protection— internally and externally — so you can rest assured that your practice is as safe as possible from malware, hacker attacks and Crypto locking.
