The impact of insider threats on public health can be profound:
- Data breaches can lead to loss of public trust and reluctance to share personal health information. - Misinformation dissemination can cause panic, lead to non-compliance with health guidelines, or promote harmful behaviors. - Resource misallocation due to manipulated data can result in inefficient use of public health funds and efforts. - Compromised research can delay the development of effective treatments and interventions.
