Description
Outcomes and deliverables
The funding will:
- Support the adoption of market-ready innovative cybersecurity solutions, including solutions developed in the framework of EU-supported research and innovation projects.
- Provide up to date tools to healthcare and public health institutions (in particular SMEs) to protect themselves against cyber threats.
- Contribute to data sharing in view to improve security collectively.
The action will support cybersecurity resilience in healthcare and public health institutions, which have been put under particular stress over the recent years, especially further to the COVID-19 crisis, in view of limiting the damage of safety-critical cybersecurity incidents which have affected hospitals and health services providers.
Scope:The focus will be on improving the cybersecurity capabilities of healthcare and public health institutions across the EU, including cybersecurity services and products, skills and training, awareness raising, and exchange of information, and others. Cross-border solutions will be promoted where appropriate.
The types of tools intervention covered must include at least one of the following:
- Implementation of objectives and requirements under the NIS Directive in relation to the health sector;
- Support for the uptake in healthcare and public health institutions, and in particular SMEs, of software tools, methods, organisational and management practices, and training material dedicated to cybersecurity;
- Electronic ID (eID) and data management solutions contributing to data security in healthcare and public health institutions;
- Cybersecurity education, awareness and skills in healthcare and public health institutions.
