| Abstract: | Phishing attacks are increasingly becoming a bigger problem every year. In the United States, an average data breach will cost 3.86 billion dollars. Especially phishing emails are common to use among criminals. In healthcare, a lot of sensitive data is stored in the EHR, which is interesting for criminals. Hospitals that are victimized by phishing emails, could potentially no longer treat patients because there is no access to the EHR. In this paper, a meta-analysis is performed to understand what influence the characteristics of an individual, the characteristics of the phishing email itself, and the context alignment have on the susceptibility of a phishing email. The results do not proof a significant effect from the characteristics that are used for this meta-analysis. |
