However, finding a resilient and reliable service provider is not a task that should be taken lightly. Mobility solutions are an ideal means of communication in the agile working environment.

These often release new updates and features which are rolled out to customers, and can be easily integrated with your systems. Their ease of use makes them more accessible to small-to-medium enterprises - however, if left unchecked, they could result in vulnerabilities in your system. It’s important to deal with any gaps in your defences, and if you don’t know what to look for, a cyber assessment could help you address any risks and prevent a data breach from happening within your organisation.

In these cases, a successful cybersecurity breach on the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices could potentially have devastating consequences.
