Over the last decade, many public health research efforts have included information technologies such as Mobile Health (mHealth), Electronic Health (eHealth), Telehealth, and Digital Health to assist with unmet global development health needs. This presentation provides a background on the lack of documentation on cybersecurity risks or vulnerability assessments in global public health areas. This presentation suggests existing frameworks and policies be adopted for public health. We also propose to incorporate a simple assessment toolbox and a research paper section intended to help minimize cybersecurity and information security risks for public, nonprofit, and healthcare organizations. - Further slides will be provided prior to the event to be shared.
