Take a collective defense approach to boost your cyber resilience and visibility
We recognize that not all organizations have a robust cybersecurity team or even the resources to enable a cybersecurity resilience strategy. This is why it is important for us as a community to come together and share best practices, tools, and guidance. We encourage your organization to collaborate with regional, national, and global healthcare organizations such as Health-ISAC (Information Sharing and Analysis Centers). The Health-ISAC provides healthcare organizations with platforms to exchange threat intelligence. Health-ISAC Chief Security Officer Errol Weiss says these organizations are like “virtual neighborhood watch programs,” sharing threat experiences and defense strategies.
For healthcare organizations that have the resources, this Microsft report provides guidance on how to:
- Establish a robust governance framework.
- Create an incident response and detection plan. Then be prepared to execute it efficiently during an actual attack to minimize damage and ensure a quick recovery.
- Implement continuous monitoring and real-time detection capabilities.
- Educate your organization using our cybersecurity awareness and education #BeCyberSmart Kit.
- Harness more resilience strategies found in the report.
