AHA Preferred Cybersecurity & Risk Provider Program

Protect Your Patients and Business Operations from Cyberthreats and Other Risk
The nation’s hospitals and health systems are facing many high-risk challenges and threats in their efforts to provide quality patient care and maintain business operations — two of which are cyberattacks and physical threats. To address these rising threats, many health care organizations are making cybersecurity and physical security part of their existing governance, risk management, and business and clinical continuity frameworks.
To support its members in these efforts, the AHA has established a Preferred Cybersecurity & Risk Provider Program. The goal: to identify trusted providers with vetted services that can help hospitals and health systems protect their patients and operations from cyberattacks and physical threats.
