Many strategies that can protect a healthcare facility's electronic security from cyberattacks are simple to implement, according to an article on the Campus Safety website.
Network services that may be left unsecure, or simply accessed by other vendors servicing their network-based devices, can be points of vulnerability.
Other points of failure may result when someone is accessing a remote junction box or conduit trough when trying to trace a cable or locate a splice point, the article said.
On the plus side, securing power supplies with a tamper switch and adding simple locking devices can help safeguard against accidental power loss.
