In 2017 an HHS task force diagnosed healthcare cybersecurity to be in ?critical condition? because of relentless cyber attacks on the healthcare system that cause patient safety, financial, operational and public confidence impact. In 2024 the Health Sector Coordinating Council ? the industry-run critical infrastructure advisory council to the federal government and the health sector, is releasing its five-year Health Industry Cybersecurity Strategic Plan as a wellness formulary for how the industry can upgrade its security and resiliency prognosis from ?critical? to ?stable.? Forged over 18 months by health sector leaders in consultation with government partners, the Strategic Plan identifies the cybersecurity challenges posed by broad trends in the healthcare industry over the next five years and how we need to prepare for them. The leadership of the HSCC and government officials will take the stage to discuss the strategy with a call to action to the health industry to invest in the collective imperative that ?cyber safety is patient safety?.
