Overview

This group is a collaborative forum focused on cybersecurity considerations relevant to digital and virtual health solutions in Canada’s healthcare system. It does this by supporting coordination and knowledge sharing on security requirements, risk management practices, and approaches to protecting health information across jurisdictions, providers, and solution vendors. This matters because healthcare organizations face increasing cyber threats, evolving technologies, workforce constraints, and varying jurisdictional requirements that can complicate secure digital health delivery.

Ultimately, this work helps participants align on practical, shared approaches that support safer, more consistent adoption of digital and virtual care solutions.

Who it’s for

Intended for jurisdictions, vendors, clinicians, policymakers, researchers, and standards organizations involved in Canada’s digital health ecosystem who are responsible for, or contribute to, the security, privacy, and risk management of digital health and virtual care solutions.
