How AI Can Hack and Protect Radiology
Benoit Desjardins, MD, PhD, Richard Staynings, MS, Shandong Wu, PhD, MS, E. Russell Ritenour, PhD.
Expected publication Fall 2024. American Journal of Roentgenology [AJR]
Abstract:
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly growing in importance in the field of cybersecurity, for both defensive and offensive purposes, and will soon become the most important aspect of cybersecurity. In this paper, we will explore how AI can hurt and help radiology against cyberattacks. We will first cover the offensive aspects of AI, how cybercriminals are weaponizing artificial intelligence to improve their attacks against medical institutions. We will offer cutting-edge examples of how cyber-criminals are currently using AI to improve success of different types of attacks, such as phishing and intrusions of medical centers, which can disrupt the confidentiality, integrity and availability of medical data and images. We will next cover how cyber-defense teams at medical centers are using artificial intelligence to supplement the limited capabilities of humans to detect and defend against such cyberattacks.

Remote Monitoring and Artificial Intelligence: Novel Technologies and New Threats.
Fredrik Granholm, MD., Derrrick Tin. MBBS., Richard Staynings, MS, & Gregory R Ciottone, MD.October 2024, Volume 139, Number 4. Journal of Anesthesia & Analgesia. www.anethesia-analgesia.org
Excerpt:
New technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), remote monitoring, machine learning, and augmented reality, can radically change the future of anesthesiology creating the potential for new therapeutics and synergistic applications. However, there are clear patient safety threats associated with cyber breaches, cybercrime, cyberterrorism, and the growing danger of hybrid warfare. With our increasing dependence on computer systems and technology in operating rooms, intensive care units, and critical care transport, most health care systems are becoming extremely vulnerable to cyberattacks. Many health care IT systems, communication systems, ventilators, radiotherapy, monitoring systems, and infusion pumps are already extremely soft targets because of their inadequate or often outdated security controls.

Why IoT Needs to be Better Regulated to Protect Healthcare Against Cybercrime
Richard Staynings, MS. 04 March 2024, Journal of mHealth
Excerpt:
Two of the greatest unmitigated risks today in the healthcare sector are the security of medical and other Internet of Things (IoT) devices and third-party vendor management (TPVM) including supply chain security. Covid-19 taught us that the integrity and availability of supply chains could be very unpredictable with the delivery of sub-par PPE or none at all. Rising geopolitical tensions and blockages of shipping routes have brought about new practices including near-shoring and safe-shoring, while the integrity of both the hardware and software supply chain have recently been challenged with extra substrates discovered in motherboards manufactured in China and numerous easily compromised backdoors built into the firmware of all sorts of computer devices.

Digital Health Entrepreneurship. (2nd Ed.)
Publication Date: 07 October 2023Editor: Arlen Mayers, MD.
Abstract:
This book presents a hands on approach to the digital health innovation and entrepreneurship roadmap for digital health entrepreneurs and medical professionals who are dissatisfied with the existing literature on or are contemplating getting involved in digital health entrepreneurship. Topics covered include regulatory affairs featuring detailed guidance on the legal environment, protecting digital health intellectual property in software, hardware and business processes, financing a digital health start up, cybersecurity best practice, and digital health business model testing for desirability, feasibility, and viability. Digital Health Entrepreneurship is directed to clinicians and other digital health entrepreneurs and stresses an interdisciplinary approach to product development, deployment, dissemination and implementation. It therefore provides an ideal resource for medical professionals across a broad range of disciplines seeking a greater understanding of digital health innovation and entrepreneurship.

Cyberthreats and Healthcare
Derrick Tin MBBS; Ryan Hata, MD; Richard Staynings, MS; Fredrik Granholm, MD.; Gregory Ciottone, MD, PhD.
13 July 2023. Prehospital and Disaster Medicine
Abstract:Cyberattacks against healthcare have been growing at an alarming rate globally targeting the theft of clinical research intellectual property, personally identifiable information, and personal health information. Recent studies have also shown a concerning correlation between cyberattacks and patient morbidity and mortality rates. Many top security experts consider cyberattacks a top national security concern.This paper is a descriptive analysis of healthcare-related breaches in the United States in the past decade and an analysis of cybersecurity threats that are currently facing the industry.

Abstract:
Cyberattacks are one of the most widespread, damaging, and disruptive forms of action against healthcare entities. Data breaches, ransomware attacks, and other intrusions can lead to significant cost both in monetary and personal harm to those affected and may result in large payouts to cyber criminals, crashes of information technology systems, leaks of protected health and personal information, as well as fines and lawsuits. This study is adescriptive analysis of healthcare-related cyber breaches affecting 500 or more individuals in the past decade in the United States.Publisher: Elsevier

How can Healthcare Tackle the Security Challenges of IoT/HIoT?
Richard Staynings, MS. 22 November 2022, Journal of mHealth
Excerpt:
A greying of the population, a growing demand for more elective surgeries to correct joints damaged by increasing obesity and a sedentary lifestyle, and earlier diagnosis of medical ailments, are all leading to increased demand for medical intervention and healthcare services. With the recipients of most of these services already retired and therefore net beneficiaries of state healthcare services rather than economic contributors to health insurance or taxes, this is leading to a financial crunch for most health systems. One where demand vastly outstrips supply.

Working as a Health Cybersecurity Specialist in The Health Information Workforce. In (Ed.), The Health Information Workforce.
2021. Editors: Kerryn Butler-Henderson, Karen Day, Kathleen Gray
Abstract:
This book provides a detailed guide to the highly specialised but little known health information workforce - people who are health
informaticians, digital health experts, and managers of health data, health information and health knowledge. It explains the basis of their
unique functions within healthcare – their educational pathways and standards, professional qualifications and industry certifications,
scholarly foundations and principles of good practice. It explores their challenges, including the rise of the health consumer movement, the drive to improve equity and quality in healthcare, new technologies such as artificial intelligence, and the COVID-19 infodemic. Case studies
describe how practitioners in real-world roles around the world are addressing the digital transformation of health.
The Health Information Workforce: Current and Future Developments offers insights into a skilled group of people who are essential for healthcare services to function, for care providers to practice at the top of their scope, for researchers to generate significant insights, and for care consumers to be empowered participants in health systems. This book offers new perspectives for anyone working or intending to work in the health sector. It is a critical resource for health workforce planners, employers and educators seeking guidance on the specialised capabilities needed for high performance in an increasingly information-intensive sector.
