HHS is encouraging sector partners to prepare for the likelihood of increased cyber-attacks against health care entities by reviewing their vulnerability management strategy and contingency planning as well as adopting a heightened cyber-defense posture.

The Department of Homeland Security issued a National Terrorism Advisory Bulletin.
