How can your health tech startup stay secure in a world of increasing cybersecurity challenges? Boost your knowledge with practical strategies and expert advice from Cybersecure Health Tech Forum and Cybersecure Health Tech Workshop, held by Health Capital Helsinki, Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Council, and Vertical in 2024.
The healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors represent a highly complex environment from a cybersecurity perspective. Cybercriminals target sensitive information like patient data, credit card details, and business secrets. While network traffic poses a significant risk, ensuring the physical security of medical devices in public spaces is equally critical. Additionally, mobile apps connected to these devices open up new pathways for potential attacks.
To help startups and growth companies navigate these challenges, Health Capital Helsinki, Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Council (Uudenmaan liitto), and Vertical Innovation Consultancy organised two events in 2024: Cybersecure Health Tech Forum and Cybersecure Health Tech Workshop. While seating was limited, the training materials and keynote presentations are now available to all, free of charge.
