In an ever-changing digital landscape with increasingly complex cyber threats, the healthcare sector is in a constant battle to protect sensitive patient information and vital infrastructures. From hospitals and medical devices to safeguarding patient data, the risks of cyberattacks are becoming more frequent and sophisticated.
Objective of the Initiative
The primary objective of this initiative is to establish a comprehensive and effective framework for cybersecurity training for professionals in the healthcare sector, considering the unique challenges faced by hospitals, clinics, and other medical organizations. The aim is to ensure that all employees, regardless of their field of activity, are equipped with the necessary knowledge and tools to protect the data and infrastructure of healthcare institutions against cyber threats.
To this end, RO-CCH and DNSC have initiated a national survey to map existing cybersecurity training programs, aligning them with national and sectoral strategies. The feedback collected will support the creation of a tailored training plan, adapted to the real needs of the sector.
The Importance of Participating in the Survey
Participating in the survey initiated by RO-CCH represents an essential opportunity for healthcare professionals to actively contribute to shaping the future of educational programs in cybersecurity.
Completing this survey will help identify gaps in current training and enable the development of effective training programs to be implemented in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare institutions across Romania.
Long-Term Impact
The feedback gathered will be used to develop a structured training plan that will not only address current challenges but also anticipate future risks. Additionally, by integrating this into the European cybersecurity strategy, you will contribute to the creation of policies and practices that will protect healthcare institutions at the European level.
In conclusion, the RO-CCH initiative is a crucial step toward ensuring a more secure digital health system. Together, we can shape a safer future for digital health!
