BackgroundThe health sector has quickly become a target for cyberattacks. Hospitals are especially sensitive to these sorts of attacks as any disruption in operations or even disclosure of patient personal information can have far-reaching consequences. The objective of this study was to map the available literature on cyberattacks on hospitals and to identify the different domains of research, while extracting the recommendations and guidelines put forth in the literature.MethodsFour databases (PubMed, Web of Science, ProQuest, and Scopus) were searched using standardized and adapted search syntax in order to identify relevant manuscripts published between 1997 and 2017. These were screened by two reviewers and included or excluded based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data from articles were then extracted and analyzed.ResultsThe search identified 818 records of which 97 were included. Of the 97, 32% were published in 2017 while around 40% of the articles were published prior to the last three years. Six domains of research emerged through the analysis, which are included here: context and trends in cybersecurity (27.8%), connected medical devices and equipment (29.9%), hospital information systems (14.4%), raising awareness and lessons learned (6.2%), information security methodology (15.4%), and specific types of attacks (6.2%).ConclusionThere is a generally growing interest in the research field, but the available literature remains limited in number. There are important aspects of cybersecurity (e.g. cloud storage and access management) as well as specific medical fields that rely on various medical devices that have been neglected. Recommendations are available, but comprehensive guidelines and standardized best practice measures are still necessary.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12911-018-0724-5) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Although encryption algorithms have a wide range of applications, with the continuous research on large number decomposition technology, people can decompose more and more numbers. The length of the key also increases [29]. Due to the limitations of traditional encryption methods, the choice of large prime numbers becomes difficult and its efficiency is reduced.…”

Nowadays, the development of information technology can be described as extremely rapid, especially with the widespread use of the Internet; the security of communications in the network has become an important issue we are facing. The purpose of this article is to solve the problems in today’s network security data encryption algorithms. Starting from the computer network communication security data encryption algorithm, we discuss the effects of several different encryption methods on improving network security. The research results show that it is known that the application of link encryption algorithm in network communication security encryption algorithm can increase the security index by 25%, the node encryption algorithm can increase the security index by 35%, and the end-to-end encryption algorithm can make the cyber activity safety index to increase by 40%. Among them, RSA algorithm and DES algorithm are two very representative algorithms; they represent different encryption systems. From the perspective of network data link, there are three methods of encryption algorithm, namely, link encryption algorithm, node encryption algorithm, and end-to-end encryption algorithm.

With the development of computer technology and communication technology, computer network will increasingly become an important means of information exchange, and permeate into every field of social life. However, the network has the potential threat and the reality existence each kind of security question, therefore we must take the strong security policy to ensure the network security. The purpose of this paper is to study the network computer security hidden trouble and vulnerability mining technology. In this paper, the types of security hidden dangers are analyzed, and the vulnerability detection technology Fuzzing technology is deeply studied. Then, the inspection and test time is analyzed for the existing vulnerability detection tools. The experimental results prove that vulnerability detection technology can protect network security with high efficiency of vulnerability detection. In this paper, three vulnerability detection tools WS Fuzzer, Web Fuzz and Webvul Scan were used to analyze the detection time of open source system, personal blog, shopping mall and forum. The average detection time was 1.9s, 8.7s, 20.5s and 59.7s, respectively. It can be seen that the vulnerability mining technology has a certain practical role.
