The recently-opened Health Sector Cybersecurity Coordination Center (HC3) has been buzzing with the sound of industry collaboration and coordination. HC3 will host tours, and brief stakeholder organizations to share capabilities and services.
HC3 strengthens coordination and information sharing within the healthcare and public health sector and cultivates cybersecurity resilience by providing timely and actionable cybersecurity intelligence to health organizations.
HC3’s coordinating role with the health and public health sector is supported by two prominent cybersecurity information sharing organizations, the Health Information Sharing and Analysis Center (H-ISAC) and the Health Information Trust Alliance (HITRUST). HC3 is working with these organizations to understand the cyber threats faced by the sector as well as cyber threat patterns and trends to provide information and approaches on how the sector can better prepare and respond to these cyber threats.
In the next several months, HC3 will host tours with various stakeholder organizations in support of the Department of Health and Human Services’ cybersecurity mission.
