Confusion over data ownership in healthcare is the reason why the sector has a poor reputation when it comes to preventing data breaches and cyber security issues.
That's according to Dr Siraj Ahmed Shaikh, reader in cyber security and leader of the digital security and forensics research group at Coventry University, who was commenting in response to a report suggesting the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors lag behind others in cyber security.
Dr Shaikh told Computing that while the report only "offers a partial view of the situation" IT and cyber security strategies within healthcare, particularly the NHS, do offer some cause for concern.
