In June, the Health Care Industry Cybersecurity Task Force
published its "Report on Improving Cybersecurity in the Health
Care Industry." The report noted the condition of health
care cybersecurity and outlined six key recommendations: (i) define
and streamline leadership, governance, and expectations; (ii)
increase security and resilience of medical devices and health IT;
(iii) develop workforce capacity to prioritize cybersecurity; (iv)
improve awareness and education; (v) identify mechanisms to protect
research and development efforts and intellectual property from
attacks or exposure; and (vi) improve information-sharing of
industry threats, risks, and mitigations.
