Data Protection for Health Care Workshop (virtual workshop)
Wednesday 16th of September in afternoon
Health care is an essential service that uses a great deal of sensitive personal data which has a high black market value being a lucrative target for data theft and ransomware attacks. The EU NIS Directive (EU 2016/1148) and GDPR (EU 2016/679) will harmonize and improve information security in Europe. Both require relevant ICT infrastructure operators to perform risk assessments, introduce appropriate security measures to manage identified risks, and report security breaches. Unfortunately, risk-based approaches are notoriously difficult to implement in a consistent and comprehensive fashion. They depend on a high level of understanding of both cybersecurity and of the system or network to be protected.
This workshop aims to bring researches and health care institutions together, in order to present, and to discuss, different cyber-security solutions being developed, and already applied in order to enhance privacy, security, and data protection within the health care context.
