Cybersecurity

The term represents the need to ensure the security and integrity of the data passing through the processing systems connected to the network.

Cyber-attacks are now an important risk for governments, organizations and other companies.

Technological innovation in the field of health has raised areas of concern, such as regulatory adjustments for the presence of medical devices in the network, including software, to potential vulnerability.

The activity of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità (ISS, the National Institute of Health in Italy) is focused on the recognition of the most relevant problems associated with the adoption of new solutions and regulations, with a national cyber security study group to promote guidelines.
