IoT in healthcare and the various current and emerging cyber security risks IoT brings into healthcare environment, especially hospitals, and their security requirements and frameworks; includes some examples of dark web activity.
The cyber security job is everyone's business including the Board of Directors, even without a cyber security degree. Recent cyber security news proves that. According to several studies, Boards are getting it wrong and are leaving cyber awareness and risk management in the hands of the CEO, CISO, CTOs and cyber security companies. In a sense they are abdicating their responsibility to the shareholders. This slideshare proposes 7 questions every board should be asking their company executives abour IT security. They're not necessarily all encompassing and don't take the place of real cybersecurity training, but will drive the discussion to better and more complete understanding of strategic risk. Questions cover the basics of cyber security training, cyber policies, who briefs and when at board meetings. Thanks.

INCIDENT RESPONSE PLAN FOR A SMALL TO MEDIUM SIZED HOSPITALIJNSA Journal
Most small to medium health care organizations do not have the capability to address cyber incidents within the organization. Those that do are poorly trained and ill equipped. These health care organizations are subject to various laws that address privacy concerns, proper handling of financial information, and Personally Identifiable Information. Currently an IT staff handles responses to these incidents in an Ad Hoc manner. A properly trained, staffed, and equipped Cyber Incident Response Team is needed to quickly respond to these incidents to minimize data loss, and provide forensic data for the purpose of notification, disciplinary action, legal action, and to remove the risk vector. This paper1 will use the proven Incident Command System model used in emergency services to show any sized agency can have an adequate CIRT.

Cybersecurity breaches in the Healthcare industry pose a significant threat to those organizations. According to Gordon et al., cybersecurity breaches not only affect the patient’s information but it can also affect the organization's creditability (2017). When an organization creditability comes into question due to a cybersecurity breach, that organization may lose customers due to the fear of their information not being appropriately protected. In Healthcare it is crucial that we understand the impact of cybersecurity breaches. Most of the major hospital in the United States are using electronic medical records (EMR). A lot of hackers are using phishing methods to trick hospital and breaching their security protocol by tricking staff members into disclosing sensitive and personal information (Winder, 2014). Therefore, the following will discuss way cyber security breaches happen in the healthcare industry and way to prevent them from happening in the future.
Cyber Security Breach Diagram
Malicious and Non-Malicious
Cyber security breaches in healthcare can happen in several different ways. These different types of breaches can either be malicious or non-malicious. A malicious cyber security breech in healthcare, is when an individual or individuals purposely hacked into and attack or gain unauthorized access to members PII. Unauthorized access (such as hacking) to protected healthcare systems is the result of malicious behavior, things like holding the system ransom or stealing private information are acts of malicious behavior (Katz, 2018). Penetrating a system manually and disabling the systems defenses or by downloading software programs are other types of malicious behavior. Hacking is a malicious behavior, but just because the system is hack doesn’t necessarily mean any personal information is compromised. A number malicious cyber security breach may not be done intentionally but can cause just as many issues as a malicious cyber security breech. When data is unintentionally left exposed to an authorized access it is a non-malicious behavior. Cyber security breaches in healthcare can be the result of employee error or negligence. In healthcare malicious behavior is a portion of the inflow of cyber security breaches and non-malicious behavior is the portion of the outflow of a cyber security breech.

As a group, we have identified a multitude of cybersecurity breaches that are growing concerns amongst the healthcare providers and companies that offer their services to the community. Another one of these concerns’ hails in the form of eavesdropping. Eavesdropping is a d.

Are your IT staff ready
for the pandemic-driven
insider threat? Phil Chapman
Obviously the threat to human life is
the top concern for everyone at this
moment. But businesses are also starting
to suffer as productivity slips globally
and the workforce itself is squeezed.
The UK Government’s March budget
did announce some measures, especially
for small and medium-size enterprises
(SMEs), that will make this period
slightly less painful for organisations.
However, as is apparent from the tank-
ing stock market (the FTSE 100 has
hit levels not seen since June 2012) the
economy and pretty much all businesses
in the country (unless you produce hand
sanitiser) are going to suffer. There is no
time like now for the UK to embrace
its mantra of ‘keep calm and carry on’
because that is what we must do if we’re
going to keep business flowing.
For the IT department at large there is
lots of urgent work to do to ensure that
the business is prepared to keep running
smoothly even if people are having to
work remotely. The task at hand for cyber
security professionals is arguably even
larger as Covid-19 is seeing cyber criminals
capitalising on the fact that the insider
threat is worse than ever, with more people
working remotely from personal devices
than many IT and cyber security teams
have likely ever prepared for.
This article will argue that the cyber
security workforce, which is already suf-
fering a digital skills crisis, may also be
lacking the adequate soft skills required
to effectively tackle the insider threat
that has been exacerbated by the pan-
demic. It will first examine the insider
threat, and why this has become so
much more insidious because of Covid-
19. It will then look into the essential
soft skills required to tackle this threat,
before examining how organisations can
effectively implement an apprentice-
ship strategy that generates professionals
with both hard and soft skills, includ-
ing advice from the CISO of globally
respected law firm Pinsent Masons, who
will provide insight into how he is mak-
ing his strategy work. It will conclude
that many of these issues could be solved
if the industry didn’t rely so heavily on
recruiting graduates and rather looked
towards hiring apprentices.
The insider threat
In the best of times, every cyber-pro-
fessional knows that the biggest threat
to an organisation’s IT infrastructure
is people, both malicious actors and
– much more often – employees and
partners making mistakes. The problem
is that people lack cyber knowledge and
so commit careless actions – for exam-
ple, forwarding sensitive information to
the wrong recipient over email or plug-
ging rogue USBs into their device (yes,
that still happens). Cyber criminals
capitalise on this ignorance by utilising
social engineering tactics ranging from
the painfully simple, like fake emails
from Amazon, to the very sophisticated,
such as.

How Vulnerable Is Your Industry to Cyber Crime?David Hunt
The truth is that any company harboring sensitive customer information could become the target of a sophisticated cyber criminal. That being said, there are certainly industries that are more vulnerable to attacks. Let’s take a closer look at four of the most vulnerable industries—financial services, healthcare, insurance and retail.
Cybersecurity Challenges in the Healthcare Industry.pdfMobibizIndia1

While these technological improvements have revolutionized healthcare transport, they have also uncovered the enterprise to a myriad of cybersecurity challenges.
Best 3 Cyber Threats in Healthcare Organizations Today | The Lifesciences Mag...The Lifesciences Magazine
Ryan Witt, who is in charge of cyber threats in healthcare at Proofpoint, says that this is why U.S. hospital defenses have always been weak. Since attackers learned this, hospitals in the United States have been a top target. Cybercriminals continue to focus on U.S. health care, and hospital information security is always trying to catch up.
Social engineering and human error present the single biggest threat to companies in 2017. In fact, 60% of enterprise companies were targeted by social engineering attacks within the last year. As cyber security automation practices get better, attackers are increasingly relying on social engineering to make their way into systems and networks.

Healthcare organizations are awash with data. However, electronic health records (EHRs) and digital clinical systems in many healthcare organizations have been deployed without strategic data and IT infrastructure security planning. As a result, chief information security officers (CISOs) frequently have limited authority, sparse staffing and tight budgets. Data security spending in healthcare lags behind other top cybercrime targets such as financial services, according to new research by HIMSS Analytics on behalf of Symantec Corporation.

Reasons for the Popularity of Medical Record TheftOPSWAT
After a slew of data breaches in 2014, the FBI warned the healthcare industry that cyber-criminals would be directing more attention their way in 2015. The healthcare industry has become an increasingly valuable target for cyber thieves, and in some cases, a much easier target to attack, due to their often less than adequate investment in cyber security. What is it about the healthcare industry that has captured the cyber criminals' interest in the last few years?
This white paper covers various topics including industry data breach statistics, the value of credit card data versus medical record data, healthcare spending on cyber security and the impact of BYOD on industry vulnerability to data breaches. This white paper also highlights various solutions for protecting medical record data including multi-scanning, email security and the protection of endpoint devices.
We Need to Prioritize Cybersecurity in 2020Matthew Doyle
Technology has sparked incredible advances in healthcare — but it hasn’t done so without risk. Cybersecurity has long been a hot-button issue for the healthcare sector. For many provider organizations, a major security breach constitutes a worst-case scenario, posing a significant threat to operations, patient trust, and confidential information alike.
In the last week of October 2020, the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), released Alert (AA20-302A) – Ransomware Activity Targeting Healthcare and Public Health Sector. This joint advisory was authored by CISA, the FBI, and HHS.

An Ounce of Prevention: How Healthcare Organizations Can Stop Cybercrime in Its Tracks
1. Since healthcare providers are
such appealing targets, it’s only
a matter of time before your
organization is targeted. Be
ready with strong cybersecurity.
Because, as with healthcare
itself, an ounce of
prevention is worth
a pound of cure.

TRAIN
EVERYONE:
If an employee has the ability to
log into a computer, they need
constant cybersecurity training.
This should include ongoing
phishing simulations and
trainings on best practices.
REASSESS
ACCESS:
Not every employee needs
access to your entire
network.
Look at your access privileges
and add restrictions based on
job function.
UPDATE YOUR
SYSTEMS:
Outdated hardware and
software will always be an
entry point for hackers.
Cybercriminals invest in the
latest and greatest tech. To
keep them out, you need to
update your IT too. and digital
workspaces.
So how can
healthcare organizations
avoid data breaches, DDOS attacks and the like?
The
conditions
are right for
cybercriminals
to thrive.
• A huge increase in remote work before many organizations were
equipped to handle it.
• A widespread lack of information on the virus, tempting people to visit
unverified websites in search of up-to-the-minute news.
• Chaos from an uptick in remote work that’s forcing IT employees to
focus on areas other than security.
• An ongoing lack of cybersecurity training for all employees
According to the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security, COVID-19 has contriuted
to an increase in cybercrime, due to:
Why are healthcare organizations
such an appealing target?
Valuable information
On the black market, health records fetch
10–20x more than credit card information.
Variety of information
Healthcare organizations retain lots of
data that can be useful to criminals,
like Protected Health Information (PHI),
identification information and financial
records.
Inadequate security practices
25% of U.S. health employees have never
received cybersecurity training.
Outdated technology
Many healthcare institutions continue to
use old systems and don’t invest in the
latest security products.
