Description:
CybeRIS is a training opportunity for start-ups and SMEs to enable the implementation of innovative healthcare solutions in a hospital environment without impeding critical infrastructure or exposing vulnerabilities. Knowledge transfer between cybersecurity experts, innovators and healthcare professionals will lead to a better understanding of potential safety threats and mitigation techniques. A particular goal is also to increase the uptake and dissemination of state-of-the-art cybersecurity solutions (especially by start-ups and SMEs).
