    Security of Big Data in Healthcare Systems

    As cyber-attacks have become more common and sophisticated, the need for a stable security framework has become essential. Information security requirements must be met by digital technologies utilized in the health care sector. Modern hospitals are becoming increasingly digital, and information and communication technology is becoming an increasingly significant element of the core business. This lays the groundwork for improved patient care quality. At the same time, the health sector's vulnerability to digital attacks and data breaches is growing, and so are the potential negative effects of security breaches. The Norwegian healthcare system is divided into different regions, each with its own set of processes and procedures. Because of the fragmentation, there are substantial communication issues between the many health regions and their systems, making transmitted data vulnerable to threat actors. A reorganization is required to effectively handle this issue and improve the security of healthcare systems. The research was conducted using a qualitative method with a problem-oriented phenomenon-driven research approach on Norwegian Healthcare Sector. In addition, interviews with different security employees from the different health regions in Norway, as well as a document analysis of published papers was done to gather empirical material for the master thesis
