Health care stakeholders are invited to participate in one of four Department of Homeland Security webinar sessions March 27-30 on the National Cyber Incident Response Plan and how stakeholders can leverage the plan in their communities. Developed by DHS in coordination with federal, state and public and private partners, including representatives from the health care sector, the plan was released in January and describes a national approach to dealing with significant incidents posing risks to critical infrastructure. Each webinar session, hosted on the Homeland Security Information Network, will begin at 3 p.m. ET and cover the same information.
