Posted on October 19, 2024 by Dissent

An announcement from HHS OCR:

In recognition of National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, OCR has produced a new video this October to provide awareness and education for organizations covered under the HIPAA Rules on ransomware and how compliance with the HIPAA Security Rule can help such organizations combat ransomware.

This video updates the health care industry on the ransomware trends OCR sees in its cybersecurity investigations, OCR guidance and resources, best practices and practical advice on how HIPAA compliance can help HIPAA regulated entities prevent, detect, respond to, and recover from ransomware attacks. Topics include:

  • OCR breach and ransomware trend analysis
  • Review of prior OCR ransomware guidance and materials
  • Analysis of the ransomware attack chain
  • Explore how Security Rule compliance can combat ransomware

The video presentation may be found on OCR’s YouTube channel at: USGovHHSOCR
