55 percent of consumers expect their mobile health apps to be hacked within the next six months, according to a recent report from Arxan Technologies. Executive IT leaders (48%) who have oversight or insight into the security of the mobile healthcare and produce apps also share the same concerns.

For the report, “State Application Security,” Arxan Technologies surveyed 318 consumers and 80 IT executives with security oversight or insight into mobile health apps in the US, UK, Germany, and Japan. 

The infographic released in conjunction with this report, illustrates the key findings along with recommendations for how healthcare organizations and consumers can minimize the risk of their mobile health apps being hacked.
