How can cybersecurity threats be mitigated in nursing?
To mitigate cybersecurity threats, nurses and healthcare organizations should adopt several strategies, such as:
Implementing strong password policies and using multi-factor authentication. Regularly updating and patching software to protect against vulnerabilities. Conducting ongoing cybersecurity training for all staff to recognize and respond to potential threats. Ensuring that sensitive patient data is encrypted both in transit and at rest. Establishing a robust incident response plan to quickly address any security breaches.
