Abstract

With patient records going online, healthcare organizations are facing new-age threats and old-world security solutions. Typing, mouse, and voice dynamics are continuous and non-intrusive user authentication, enhancing security in clinical systems. This paper discusses the application of behavioral biometrics in mitigating insider threats, compromised credentials, and unauthorized access in the healthcare sector. The paper utilizes peer-reviewed articles published between 2020 and 2025 and applies thematic analysis to identify patterns, advantages, and disadvantages. Studies reveal that behavioral biometrics enhances identification, reduces system vulnerabilities, and can be easily integrated into existing systems. However, issues remain regarding algorithm bias, user privacy, and the system's sensitivity. The article concludes that while behavioral biometrics cannot be an effective substitute for conventional security measures, they are a valuable addition to IT security in the rapidly growing field of digital healthcare and can help healthcare facilities meet regulatory requirements.

Abstract

The healthcare supply chain is increasingly vulnerable to cybersecurity risks due to the integration of digital technology. The rise of digital records, telemedicine, and network connectivity has made it more susceptible to cyberattacks. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated this vulnerability, highlighting deficiencies in medical supplies, equipment, and services. The sector has implemented cybersecurity precautions, such as following HIPAA and GDPR, and collaborating with authorities and experts. However, the changing threat landscape necessitates continuous updates and changes. The study uses secondary data from the past three years to highlight the need for strong cybersecurity protocols to protect patient data, deliver services, and defend the supply chain from new threats. Future research should explore leveraging blockchain and AI-based cybersecurity, as well as strengthening government regulation, international cooperation, cybersecurity education, and patient empowerment.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic exposed the weaknesses in healthcare supply chains, leading to shortages, increased costs, and untrustworthy vendors. This has put patients at risk for treatment delays, worse care, and higher death rates. The healthcare supply chain's dependence on single sourcing has made these issues worse. Geopolitical conflicts, climatic catastrophes, data privacy issues, cybersecurity threats, and counterfeit goods are emerging risks. Resilient solutions are needed due to the complex ecosystem of manufacturers, wholesalers, regulatory organizations, and healthcare providers. Supply Chain Resilience (SCRES) is crucial for uninterrupted healthcare services, with redundancy, visibility, and adaptability being key components. Future research directions include blockchain integration, data analytics, and regulatory frameworks to improve resilience. Successful mitigation solutions require understanding interdependence, resilience measurements, and behavioral elements. Addressing these vulnerabilities is crucial for patient safety and healthcare effectiveness.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed flaws in the healthcare supply chain, including shortages, delays, and logistical issues. Key problems include inadequacies in resilience, visibility restrictions, cost management obstacles, integration barriers, unstated costs, and disparities in inclusivity. This research uses secondary data analysis to analyze findings from academic literature, industry reports, and case studies. It emphasizes the value of resilience and visibility, suggesting investing in blockchain, AI, and IoT technology for increased transparency and risk management. The report also emphasizes the need for proactive solutions, such as data analytics for improved supply chain visibility, hybrid inventory strategies for cost control, and stakeholder engagement for smooth integration. Integrating procurement, transportation, storage, and production, addressing misuse and hidden costs, and fostering inclusion are critical aspects of enhancing the healthcare supply chain.
