Information Security in a World of Technology
Introduction
Information technology has become a critical ingredient in advancing healthcare systems'
competence and excellence across the world. In all matters related to healthcare reforms,
Information Technology is always at the core as professionals and politicians take a significant
focus on it. The development, implementation, and distribution of effective, safe, and complex
healthcare systems is a huge challenge that the United States experiences. The United States is one
of the industrialized countries that spend heavily on healthcare per capita. However, despite
massive spending, it still depends on other countries to provide it with healthcare systems.
However, in recent years the federal government has taken the initiative to solve this problem. The
country is investing heavily in IT professionals whore are required to provide the best healthcare
solutions by electronically submitting healthcare reports. But the introduction of Information
Technology in the healthcare sector comes at a cost. Many hackers have identified healthcare
systems as targets to conduct malicious acts. This means that healthcare systems are more
vulnerable than any other systems in the world. Therefore this paper will discuss educational
methods to improve security awareness in the healthcare sector.
Education Methods
There are a couple of education methods that can be used to provide security awareness.
The first method is Instructor-Led Training (ILT), which involves an instructor addressing a group
of learners who can either connect through an AV technology or attend classes. This kind of
education method requires enough time to create the instructors' content for the learners. The
content development requires the instructor to take an average of 100 hours (Hebda et al., 2019).

After that, the learners are exposed to a kinetic learning experience that requires training computer
hardware and database training to understand how computers work in the real world. ILT
effectively provides training to groups that are made up of moderate learners without the need to
have lessons as they create a positive mood among the learners. The instructor should begin the
training by explaining their goal to the students to understand the training context. It is crucial to
ensure that the content instructor is teaching to the group of learners is relevant to them. Proper
preparation for the most effective learning experiences and testing how the sessions will be run is
critical (Min et al., 2016). The instructor must learn the required skills for an effective coach...
