Forescout analysis finds the healthcare sector largely unprepared for post‑quantum cryptography: many IT/OT/IoMT devices and internet‑exposed EMR/imaging systems lack TLS 1.3 and PQC-capable implementations, creating sizeable exposure (millions of devices, thousands of internet-reachable systems) to "harvest now, decrypt later" risks; the report urges risk‑based prioritization, cross‑functional coordination, and long‑term device modernization.
