"Cybercrime puts lives at risk!"
Healthcare is a favorite target of cybercriminals. This can put patients at risk. A congress is addressing the issue.
With hacked and manipulated medical technology devices, it is possible to make decisions about people's lives. That is why the "Information Security in Healthcare Conference 2017"with the information security and data protection of medical devices. The event, organized by the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Computer Science, will take place on June 22 in Rotkreuz ZG.
How difficult is it to manipulate devices, spy on or change data? Where is sensitive data from these devices stored? What measures make sense to protect against unauthorized access? Is the networking of medical technology a curse or a blessing for the healthcare system? Against this backdrop, it is more important than ever that representatives from politics, technology, healthcare and medicine engage in an intensive exchange of ideas, write the organizers.
