ASPR TRACIE Update: Cybersecurity Resources and Upcoming Webinar
February 19, 2021

As part of our nation’s critical infrastructure, healthcare facilities large and small must be proactive and move quickly to protect themselves from cyberattacks that could directly impact the health and safety of patients and the community at large. There are steps that can be taken to effectively care for patients, manage consequences, and maintain business practices and readiness during such an event.

ASPR TRACIE recently published Healthcare System Cybersecurity: Readiness & Response Considerations and recorded a related webinar that walks users through the document.

Our next live webinar (on March 18, 2021, from 1:30-2:45 PM ET) will feature speakers who have managed recent cyberattacks on healthcare facilities. Their experiences can help emergency planners, and the healthcare systems they may be a part of, understand the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders before, during, and after a cyber incident. Register today!
