    I dunno, with Healthcare the larger the organization the more serious they take it. A small practice may basically ignore it but by the time you get to be the size of UMC, the Hospital named in the article, they’re typically spending many millions of dollars annually on CyberSecurity.

    The problem is that they’re stuck playing defense. They have to get it right every time but the attackers only have to get lucky once. They could successfully repel 10,000 attempts Monday through Saturday but then on Sunday they only repel 9,999 'cuz Bored Bob the maintenance guy clicked a new zero-day in their email and now they’re in the news.

      This is an American hospital.

      You can’t justify the security costs on this quarter’s numbers, so we’re gonna have to fire the whole team except Scruffy who changes tapes on the new tape lib that nothing uses.

      They’re gonna outsource the management to some group in Estonia but Deloitte can’t get here to start planning the finances of the project to scope the work to manage the admin programme for another 6 months.
