Digital Health Canada’s CHIEF Executive Forum today released Code Grey, a cyber security resource for healthcare delivery executives produced by the CHIEF Executive Forum Cyber Security Working Group with input from the Canadian Centre for Cybersecurity.
This new resource provides high-level strategic guidance on three phases of security—preparation, response, and recovery—with links to trustworthy Canadian information sources and available tools for health executives.
Healthcare delivery leaders who understand that cyber security requires executive-level attention may use Code Grey as a starting place to assess and address executive and board levels of cyber security understanding, maturity, and readiness.
