Health Industry Cybersecurity Practices: Managing Threats and Protecting Patients

Health Industry Cybersecurity Practices: Managing Threats and Protecting Patients Presents the Five Threat Webinar Series

In December 2018 HHS, in partnership with industry, released the “Health Industry Cybersecurity Practices (HICP): Managing Threats and Protecting Patients” publication. The four-volume publication seeks to raise awareness for executives, health care practitioners, providers, and health delivery organizations, such as hospitals. It is applicable to health organizations of all types and sizes across the industry. The publication explores the five most relevant and current threats to the industry and recommends 10 Cybersecurity Practices to help mitigate these threats. With the recent release of the publication, the 405(d) initiative is happy to announce the:  HICP’s Five Threat Weekly Series!  

What is the 5 Threats Weekly Series?  

The HICP Five Threats Weekly Series hosted by the 405(d) initiative is a series of webinars focused on the Five Threats identified in the publication. With the recent release of the HICP publication and its supporting materials, the healthcare community has a new resource to help strengthen their posture against cyber threats. These presentations aim to further introduce the publication and allow our community to dive deeper into the five threats individually and their corresponding mitigation practices. Each presentation will be co-led by federal representatives and 405(d) industry Task Group members.

The Five Threat Weekly Series kicks off on March 19, & March 21, 2019, with Threat 1: Email Phishing, and continues for five consecutive weeks. The series will run every Tuesday and Thursday at 2pm EST.
