Abstract

Ensuring the cybersecurity of patient data is particularly challenging for healthcare organizations, and healthcare professionals play a key role here. Therefore, they must have the necessary knowledge and skills to be able to identify cybersecurity risks and respond appropriately to them. As part of the CyberSecPro project, this work-in-progress paper aims to provide healthcare professionals with a simple and memorable cybersecurity checklist highlighting important factors to consider. The purpose of the checklist is to support busy healthcare workers in implementing effective cybersecurity measures to secure sensitive information and guarantee patient privacy. The interview method was used to find out the cybersecurity challenges faced by healthcare workers and gather their opinions into a checklist. The mini-mental cybersecurity checklist created in the study, emphasizes the importance of being aware of cyber threats and maintaining secure and reliable information systems. Its name “LOCK” stands for Logging Out every time you leave your computer, Checking e-mails before opening links, and Keeping safe. Keep calm and LOCK on.
