We stipulated that the ongoing public health crisis will result in fundamental changes to our public health and care delivery landscape, its supporting infrastructure, and the industry’s approach to cybersecurity. The related cyber risks will not be going away anytime soon and only those who take a proactive approach will come out on top. Hoping that solely relying on a reactive approach centered around detection and prevention of cybersecurity incidents is not a strategy that will allow for healthcare delivery to be successful in this post-pandemic ecosystem.

We will need to reexamine what needs protection and how to deliver an approach to cybersecurity that is future ready, rather than reactive. In order to utilize the promise of IT-enhanced care delivery we will need to recognize the new and increasing cyber risks and will need to develop a proactive approach to address them.
