Luis Ayala, "Cybersecurity for Hospitals and Healthcare Facilities: A Guide to Detection and Prevention"
2016 | English | ISBN: 1484221540 | 156 pages | PDF | 8 MB

This book is a wake-up call explaining how to detect and prevent the hacking of medical equipment at hospitals and healthcare facilities. The vulnerability of the medical equipment inside the hospital to cyber-attacks far eclipses the actual building equipment. A cyber-physical attack on building equipment pales in comparison to the damage a determined hacker can do if he/she gains access to a medical grade network. A medical grade network controls the diagnostic, treatment and life support equipment on which lives depend.
