2025-01-29 10:38:59 | Australia\\'s Health Sector Receives $6.4 Million Cybersecurity Boost with New Threat Information-Sharing Network (lien direct) | >
The Australian Government has awarded a $6.4 million grant to CI-ISAC Australia, enabling the establishment of a new Health Cyber Sharing Network (HCSN). This initiative is designed to facilitate the rapid exchange of critical cyber threat information within Australia\'s healthcare industry, which has become a target for cyberattacks.
The recent surge in cyberattacks on Australian healthcare organizations, including hospitals and health insurance providers, has highlighted the pressing need for enhanced cybersecurity measures. In response, the Australian Government has made healthcare the priority sector for its formal funding efforts.
This grant is part of a broader strategy to address the vulnerabilities in the nation\'s health sector and ensure it is better equipped to handle the cyber threats faced by the industry.
A Growing Threat: The Cost of Cybersecurity Breaches
The healthcare industry globally has been facing increasing cybersecurity challenges, and Australia is no exception. According to reports from 2023, the global healthcare sector continues to experience the most expensive data breaches across industries for the 13th consecutive year. The average cost of a healthcare data breach was a staggering AUD$10.93 million, nearly double that of the financial industry, which recorded an average cost of $5.9 million.
Australia\'s health sector, which encompasses a diverse range of organizations, from public and private hospitals to medical clinics and insurance providers, is increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats. This sector includes approximately 750 government hospitals, 650 private hospitals, and over 6,500 general practitioner clinics, along with numerous third-party suppliers and vendors.
The creation of the HCSN aims to address these risks by providing a secure, collaborative platform for information sharing. The network will enable health sector organizations to work together more effectively, breaking down silos and improving the speed and quality of cybersecurity threat information exchange.
The Role of CI-ISAC and the Health Cyber-Sharing Network
CI-ISAC Australia, the recipient of the $6.4 million Australian Government grant, will spearhead the creation and management of the Health Cyber Sharing Network. The HCSN will focus on fostering collaboration between Australian healthcare organizations, ensuring they can share relevant |
