Building a Secure Healthcare Facility: Implementing a Comprehensive Cybersecurity Program for Small to Medium-Sized Healthcare Facilities (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798306285818)

Small and medium-sized hospitals often face unique challenges compared to larger healthcare systems. These organizations typically serve local communities, with limited resources and smaller budgets than large hospital networks. They may also lack the in-house expertise to address complex cybersecurity needs. However, these facilities are no less susceptible to cyber threats, and attackers often target smaller hospitals, expecting less sophisticated defenses.
The following characteristics are typical of small to medium-sized hospitals:

• Limited IT and security staff
• Budget constraints impacting technology investment.
• High dependency on vendors and third-party partners
• Limited cybersecurity training and awareness programs

Despite these limitations, small to medium-sized hospitals must uphold the same standards for data protection and regulatory compliance as larger institutions. This book aims to equip these facilities with practical, manageable strategies for establishing a security program that protects patient data while meeting legal and regulatory requirements.
