HEALTH-ISAC IN AUSTRALIA 

Health-ISAC recently held a workshop in Australia in June,
hosted by the Victoria Department of Health.

Over 40 people participated in robust conversations around
several top-of-mind security topics as well as engaged in a
tabletop exercise.
Attendees heard the latest health sector
threat landscape updates, received tips on navigating
geopolitical tensions affecting the sector, and learned about
building a cyber-resilient hospital.

Really interesting speakers- a good range of difficult topics covered to suit all attendees.”
