US HHS launches $50M UPGRADE initiative to protect hospitals from cyberattacks.
The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is launching a $50M initiative called UPGRADE to help protect hospitals from cyberattacks. The program will create tools to defend internet-connected hospital equipment from cyberattacks that could take them offline or leave them incapacitated. The initiative aims to develop a tailored and scalable software suite of remediations and patches for hospitals, reducing the patching time for vulnerable healthcare products to days or weeks.
