In its second annual Velocity healthcare data breach report, Stern Security has critically analyzed over 5,000 data breaches since the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) began tracking the information in 2009.

Stern Security augmented the HHS data by investigating each breach in 2022 to fully understand the cause of the incident.
This report shows critical insights into healthcare breach trends over the past 13 years. It covers everything from the number of breaches attributed to ransomware to the number attributed to third-parties (business associates).
