The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has rolled out an initiative to fortify critical infrastructure sectors’ cybersecurity against attacks from nation-state threat actors, the American Hospital Association reported.
The project underscores the importance of preemptive isolation and recovery planning when dealing with cyber threats, like proactively disconnecting from third-party vendors and practicing the return to manual systems.
“Cyber resilience is essential to maintain patient care and safety during any incident which disrupts access to healthcare technology,” said John Riggi, AHA national advisor for cybersecurity and risk, in a May 6 news release.
Mr. Riggi stated that the effort dovetails nicely with the AHA and Joint Commission’s new program to help hospitals and health systems sustain safe clinical operations during cybersecurity-related IT outages.
