The CHIME Cybersecurity Center and Program Office plans to draw support and form partnerships with the federal government and organizations outside of healthcare to develop best practices.
“We talk frequently about sharing cyber data, but if that data isn’t meaningful to those receiving it, if data can’t be turned into useful intelligence, there is no real advantage to sharing,” said David Finn, CHIME board member. “We need to make cyber information useful. We need to have clear direction on how to protect information across the continuum of care. It is like a chain; the strength of our security is only as good as the weakest link.”
