Abstract

According to the Ponemon (2012) Third Annual Benchmark Study on Patient Privacy & Data Security, 94 percent of healthcare organizations surveyed suffered at least one data breach; 45 percent experienced more than five in the past two years. Data breaches cost the U.S. healthcare industry an average of $7 billion annually (Ponemon, 2012). Electronic health records are becoming more pervasive at hospitals and clinics in the United States. Meanwhile, healthcare organizations are taking small steps toward meaningful exchange and secure data security of patient information. This has created a need for new expertise in health data security from a newly degreed and young in information security professionals from the “Millennial Generation”. This chapter explores the attraction, recruitment, and retention of younger-generation professionals with critical and emerging health information security skills.
