Phishing and Spearphishing are among the top attack vectors for healthcare organizations, which can lead to patient care impact, financial fraud, or protected health information (PHI) breaches and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) fines. Fraudulent emails are easy to design and cheap to send, which gives threat actors incentive to use repeated email attacks. Fortunately, healthcare providers can defend their email systems so staff aren’t the sole barrier between adversaries and their goal. DMARC provides an automated approach to reducing fraudulent email, before it ever reaches an employee’s inbox. In addition, DMARC helps prevent adversaries sending email to your organization or others purportedly from your staff.
