HTN Now: Cyber security in healthcare: sharing best practices

26 February 2025 10:00 – 11:00

Join HTN and digital leaders for this panel discussion on cyber security. 

In this session, we’ll look at best practices for cybersecurity in healthcare, focusing on some of the key considerations for NHS organisations in their approach to cybersecurity, some of the main challenges in making these organisations cyber secure, and how to overcome those challenges.

We’ll consider what elements of health and care pose the greatest cybersecurity risk, looking at common pitfalls and aspects which can be overlooked, as well as issues around legacy systems and aligning them with good cybersecurity practice.

Our expert panellists will share examples of best practice, and discuss potential learnings from cybersecurity failures over the last couple of years, debating the best ways of ensuring everyone across the organisation is familiar with cybersecurity policy and its importance, and the role that the workforce can play in keeping an organisation and its data secure.

Panellists include: 

  • Neill Crump, digital strategy director at Dudley Group NHS Foundation Trust
  • Nasser Arif, cyber security manager, London North West Healthcare NHS Trust and Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
