Security Risks Concerning
Healthcare Apps
Mobile healthcare apps are meant for both patients & medical
professionals. They provide the benefit of tracking prescriptions,
reminding patients to take pills & providing information about drugs
to help practitioners in prescribing medicines.
However, some security risks dawn upon the healthcare apps. 
They pose risk to user’s privacy as they collect sensitive personal
health information (PHI) data.
Security Risks
Insecure programming
practices
Insufficient protection of
sensitive data transmission
Inadequate encryption of the
data
Non-compliance with GDPR
regulations
Storage of critical app data on
insecure mobile locations
There is a requirement for better regulations & transparency like
obtaining data subject to consent & right to withdraw consent.
