The FDA sent out the following email regarding cybersecurity for health care organizations.
“As the landscape for health care technology continues to grow and change, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) collaborated with MITRE to update the Medical Device Cybersecurity Regional Incident Preparedness and Response Playbook, a resource to help health care delivery organizations prepare for cybersecurity incidents. The playbook focuses on preparedness and response for medical device cybersecurity issues that impact the functionality of a medical device.
A Playbook Quick Start Companion Guide is also being released at the same time. This guide is a shorter version of the playbook that discusses preparedness and response activities health care organizations might want to start with as they are developing their medical device incident response program.
