Case Study

Lee Hospital is a large hospital system located in a large metropolitan area, well known for their use of cutting-edge advanced technological tools and patient care services. Several of the departments that are not patient facing allow their employees to work remotely with the exceptions of the annual two-day training event for non-leadership and for specialized training on information systems as needed. The hospital has experienced a significant cyber-attack that halted all operations for several hours when the network went down and exposed patient information. This attack revealed critical weaknesses in Lee Hospital’s cybersecurity infrastructure, including outdated antivirus software, weak password policies and identified that there is not a remote work policy.


Action Plan

As the Chief Security Officer at Lee Hospital, you have been asked to develop a cybersecurity plan that includes preventative measures to protect against cyber threats.

Steps you will complete the following as part developing your cybersecurity plan include:

1. A risk assessment to determine and prioritize potential cybersecurity threats with 2-4 strategies to mitigate the threats.

2. Accounting for technical safeguards, such as a multi-factor authentication and schedule for routine updates/patches.

3. Outlining a new policy for working remotely that includes the use of a virtual private network to gain access to the employee work hub instead of simply logging into the hospital’s intranet.

Your deliverable method will be in the form one-to-one-and-a-half-page report that outlines each of the cybersecurity plan steps you completed with your recommendations for addressing the threats, technical safeguards and outline of what a remote work policy would include to limit exposing the network to threats. Your report will be double-spaced.

Note: If you utilize your textbook or any references to support your recommendations, provide a reference list.

This assignment utilizes TurnItIn, which reviews citations, plagiarism, and artificial intelligence (AI) usage.
