Guys’ and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust’s digital chief has called on the government not to scrap the NHS England cyber security team.
Online healthcare provider Medefer has denied claims that its application programming interface (API) left NHS patient data vulnerable.
Fears have been raised that the NHS could be hit by cyber security issues because organisations are not prepared to migrate to Windows 11.
Research from BT found that only 36% of NHS staff surveyed believe that current cyber security measures are sufficient.
The NHS faces unprecedented challenges in delivering care to an ageing population while combating the rising tide of cyber threats. As patient care depends more on digital systems, with data serving as its lifeblood, the stakes for safeguarding this infrastructure have never been higher.
NHS private service provider, the HCRG Care Group, has confirmed that it is investigating a suspected ransomware attack.
