Chief Security Officer at Health-ISAC, Errol Weiss, confirms that in 2024, a higher number of cybersecurity events were observed than the year prior. What’s happening now, he says, is that not only are hospitals victims of ransomware attacks but now patients as well. Criminals will threaten to release private patient data if a ransomware sum is not being paid. To the question of whether he thinks federal legislation on cybersecurity measures within healthcare will be helpful, Weiss responds, “Hospitals are operating on razor-thin margins as it is, and it is very difficult for them to invest in things that aren’t directly related to patient care. If we’re going to talk about any kind of legislation moving forward, especially in the new administration, it needs to come with the adequate resources to make sure that that happens.” https://lnkd.in/eRV4XYNJ #healthit #healthcare #healthtech

Voluntary information sharing is a more potent force than any government mandate when it comes to sharing cyber threat intelligence, incident details and best practices. Organizations understand that by sharing information, they are not only protecting themselves but also strengthening the overall security of the digital ecosystem. A shared sense of responsibility, collaboration and learning leads to the formation of information-sharing trust communities, where organizations across industries and country borders can securely and reliably share threat intelligence.
