Abstract It is imperative to secure telehealth applications since they represent the next generation of healthcare delivery systems and offer remote clinical services and accessibility. Through telehealth, patients are able to see their doctors despite problems of time and distance, congestion, and infection. However, with the increase of telemedicine services, other vices such as ransomware, phishing and data leak are on the rise and are a threat to patients’ lives.
The following recommended practices for telemedicine application security were covered in this paper; MFA, HIPAA, and safeguarding the patient information. Preventing cyber threats and gaining patient’s trust then require the following measures: encryption of data, safe storage of data, conducting regular risk assessments and compliance with data privacy and protection laws. The following are the recommendations that may help in enhancing telehealth systems: – Telehealth systems should be developed by healthcare delivery organisations, telehealth technology vendors and policymakers.
However, research and improvement in security measures have to be done in order to address current and future risks that telemedicine is exposed to and to enhance the value of telemedicine in light of such advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and integration of electronic healthcare.
