While small and medium physician practices are subject to cyber hacking, they are targeted less than major corporations. In fact, the hacking rate is 5.9% for small practices versus large corporations. The reason is that small physician practices do not usually take credit cards. The data found in credit cards is more attractive to cyberthieves. If your organization takes credit cards, one needs HITRUST which is the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). This protects against credit card fraud.
