Description of Invention

Cloud computing has increasingly become a key driver of innovation and is widely adopted across various sectors globally. However, its adoption within the healthcare sector remains relatively limited. This may be due to a lack of research on cloud computing projects in healthcare, especially in the area of risk management. To address this gap, this study aimed to develop a risk simulation artefact specifically for cloud computing projects in healthcare. This artefact is designed to assist healthcare organizations in effectively managing risks associated with their cloud computing initiatives. The artefact was developed using Design Science Research principles and was evaluated by healthcare experts, who found it to be generally useful and appropriate for managing risks in cloud computing projects in the healthcare sector.
