EU Unveils Healthcare Cybersecurity Strategy

The European Commission has launched a comprehensive action plan to bolster the cybersecurity of EU hospitals and healthcare providers. This initiative aims to address the growing vulnerability of healthcare systems in the digital landscape. The plan extends beyond hospitals, covering the entire healthcare ecosystem, including clinics and care homes.

Key features of the plan include establishing a pan-European Cybersecurity Support Centre and mandating healthcare organizations to report ransomware payments to authorities. A Health Cybersecurity Advisory Board will guide the Support Centre’s implementation. The Commission will work closely with Member States to refine proposals and provide recommendations by Q4 2025.
