Dedicated action to reinforcing hospitals and healthcare providers

Funds pilot projects that assess hospital cybersecurity gaps and demonstrate detection and response tools at partner healthcare sites in at least two member states.

The action funds pilot projects that bring together regional or national clusters of hospitals and healthcare providers with cybersecurity service providers. Pilots first map the cybersecurity needs of their cluster and publish guidelines so other hospitals and healthcare providers can assess their own state of protection. They then build technical cybersecurity plans covering detection, monitorin

This call funds pilot projects bringing together regional or national hospital and healthcare-provider clusters with cybersecurity service providers, to strengthen detection, monitoring and response to threats like ransomware. Pilots must map the cybersecurity needs of their cluster, prepare technical plans, and run demo installations at partner hospital sites in at least two different member states.
