Abstract: Since users' lives are made easier by new technology and digital opportunities, healthcare is gradually becoming more digital. On the one hand, this offers a great potential, but it also exposes healthcare organizations to a number of risks (both digital and non-digital) that might allow an attacker to compromise the security of medical processes and even the safety of patients. Technical cybersecurity countermeasures are being utilized, particularly in the healthcare sector, to ensure the privacy, accuracy, and accessibility of data and information systems. Digital data breaches in the healthcare industry have been said to cause particularly sensitive harm due to the unauthorized use of private and sensitive information. In the face of such a hazardous threat, medical institutions must evaluate the financial ramifications of a prospective cyber-attack that results in a compromise of patient data. The study's findings demonstrate that estimates of overall digital data breach expenses vary greatly between reports and analyses. The major causes are the use of various estimating methodologies and a lack of full and accurate databases as a result of inadequate disclosure of cyber events. Furthermore, the paper's most crucial conclusion is that there is an urgent need to do study on potential data breaches. This is a review article developed by evaluating numerous research publications on the topic "cyber assault on medical data".
