Topics in Public Health: The Challenge of Cybersecurity in Public Health
November 15, 2019
Webinar
This series will educate PHS health professionals about topics that are pertinent to their roles within the various agencies within the Department of Health and Human Services and other Public Health Service agencies by presenting topics that directly relate to the HHS Strategic Plan, the Secretary's Strategic Initiatives, current topics for DHHS OPDIVs who utilize PHS health professionals, and/or other topics directly related to the advancement of public health.
Cybersecurity threats are increasingly becoming more popular to target the health care industry (public and private). Cyber threats are identified as more of a "people" problem than a system problem. Effective data management and safeguards are vital to protect health systems.
