Thông tin chi tiết

Tóm tắt :

Digital health aims to enhance patient outcomes and reduce the burden on health-care providers, including doctors, nurses and family caregivers, by leveraging digital technologies. These technologies encompass health-care providers’ information systems, cloud computing, mobile apps, web applications, connected medical devices, digital therapeutics, application processing interface services and artificial intelligence/machine learning applications. Operating within a regulatory and cybersecurity-challenged environment, health information systems face threats such as ransomware attacks on hospitals. As digital health services grow, assessing the security and privacy risks of these technologies becomes crucial for developing cost-effective, prioritized risk-mitigation strategies. This guide focuses on cybersecurity and privacy risk assessments in digital health, as tailored to the WHO European Region. It provides a framework for technical audiences to develop risk assessment specifications suited to the unique needs and goals of their organizations and countries in order to comply with country-specific cybersecurity and privacy regulations. The assessment questionnaire that forms part of the assessment methodology is also available in the form of a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and is published as a separate web annex. vii, 33 p.
