What are the six defenses that should be used in protecting health care computer system?

There are several measures that can be used to protect healthcare computer systems. Here are six important defenses to consider:

1. Encryption: Encrypt sensitive patient information, both in transit and at rest, to protect it from unauthorized access.

2. Access Control: Implement strong access control mechanisms to restrict user access to sensitive data based on their roles and responsibilities.

3. Firewalls: Deploy firewalls to monitor and control network traffic, blocking unauthorized access attempts.

4. Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDPS): Implement IDPS to monitor network traffic for suspicious activities and take appropriate actions to prevent or mitigate attacks.

5. Data Backups: Regularly back up critical data and systems to ensure quick recovery in case of data loss or system failure.

6. Security Awareness and Education: Educate employees and users about their roles in protecting sensitive information and following security best practices.
