Abstract

This collection explores the critical cybersecurity and privacy landscape within digital healthcare. It highlights vulnerabilities across genomic data, medical Internet of Things (IoT) devices, bioinformatics workflows, and biological systems. The discussions delve into ethical challenges of data sharing and the security risks in smart healthcare’s cyber-physical components and biosensors. Emerging solutions, including Machine Learning (ML) for data protection and Blockchain for secure sharing, are examined. The necessity of converging Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) cybersecurity strategies for resilient healthcare infrastructure is also emphasized, underscoring the ongoing need for comprehensive and adaptive security measures
