On January 15, 2025, the European Commission released an Action Plan focused on enhancing cybersecurity measures for hospitals and healthcare providers. This initiative responds to increasing cyber threats, highlighted by several major attacks against healthcare entities in recent years. The plan not only targets direct healthcare providers like hospitals and clinics but also emphasizes the interconnected nature of the healthcare ecosystem. Consequently, it outlines strategies that will also affect the broader supply chain, including pharmaceutical, biotechnology companies, and medical device manufacturers, aiming to strengthen overall resilience against cyber risks.
The European Commission’s Action Plan aims to enhance cybersecurity in healthcare, responding to numerous high-profile cyber attacks on healthcare providers across the EU.
While focusing on healthcare providers, the Action Plan recognizes the interdependence within the healthcare ecosystem, addressing risks that extend to pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors.
