● Backup and restore – regularly perform backups and restores of data so in the occurrence of an event, there is limited loss of data
● BYOD policy management – determine what is acceptable use, manage device provisioning and monitor devices connecting to the network
● Implement a policy of least privilege, limiting access to only what is required for an end-user to perform their job
No single solution is a silver bullet, and while this isn’t a comprehensive list, a combination of approaches coordinated between medical device vendors and HDOs covering prevention, detection and response is critical to being prepared for the inevitable cyber-attack.
