Congress and the Department of Health and Human Services (HRR) include hardware and software out of healthcare organisations programmes, recommending that more people need to learn healthcare security skills and to know how to deal with cyberattacks on healthcare systems.<\/p>\n

“The health care system cannot deliver effective and safe care without deeper digital connectivity. If the health care system is connected, but insecure, this connectivity could betray patient safety, subjecting them to unnecessary risk and forcing them to pay unaffordable personal costs. Our nation must find a way to prevent our patients from being forced to choose between connectivity and security,\u201d noted the report.<\/p>\n
