Today the Health Sector Coordinating Council published a new HSCC CWG white paper titled: “Health Industry Cybersecurity-Artificial Intelligence Machine Learning (HIC-AIM)” – an overview and discussion of 9 specific cybersecurity considerations for the implementation of A.I. in a clinical and enterprise environment.
Washington, DC – January 10, 2023 – A new survey shows that more than 400 healthcare organizations face critical challenges in managing supply chain cyber risk across the healthcare industry and significant opportunities to adopt foundational supply chain risk management practices. “The State of Supply Chain Risk in Healthcare” research report, which was conducted by the Ponemon Institute on behalf of the Health Sector Coordinating Council (HSCC) Cybersecurity Working Group, found that significant capability and budget gaps between large and small enterprises remain, and that organizations of all sizes still struggle with the basics, such as visibility into supplier inventory, linking supply chain risk to patient impact, and integrating enterprise supply chain management with procurement and contracting functions.
The HICP 2023 is an update to the 2019 HICP publication developed jointly by the HSCC and HHS. It provides executives, health care practitioners, providers, and health delivery organizations, such as hospitals, with best practices for managing cyberthreats to safeguard patient safety.
Congratulations to the many HSCC CWG Task Group Leads for their participation in our series of healthcare cybersecurity podcasts produced in partnership with Outcomes Rocket and its host Saul Marquez, for winning the Power Press Podcast Award.
The Health Information Sharing and Analysis Center (Health-ISAC) and the Healthcare and Public Health Sector Coordinating Council (HSCC) Cybersecurity Working Group appreciate the opportunity to submit comments related to the Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act of 2022 (CIRCIA).
On behalf of our nearly 5,000 member hospitals, health systems and other health care organizations, our clinician partners – including more than 270,000 affiliated physicians, 2 million nurses and other caregivers – and the 43,000 health care leaders who belong to our professional membership groups, the AHA thanks the Subcommittee for the opportunity to testify on, and your interest in, the important issue of cybersecurity threats faced by hospitals, health systems and the health care provider field. Now more than ever, we all realize how vital hospitals are to the nation’s critical infrastructure and how important they are to our communities’ health and safety.
