Cybersecurity is a pretty big deal these days, especially when it comes to keeping medical information safe. As more doctors and hospitals use computers to keep track of health records, bad guys who want to steal this sensitive information or mess up the systems are becoming more of a problem. That’s why it’s super important to make sure these networks are super secure.

Rep. Mark Green, who leads the House Homeland Security Committee, is like a team captain when it comes to protecting these important computer systems in healthcare. He’s saying we need to use every tool in the toolbox to make sure no one can mess with our health care networks.

Think of it like a castle. The health care network is the castle, and it’s full of important stuff (patient info). We need strong walls (security measures) to keep the bad guys out. But we also need smart plans and good people, like knights and archers (IT professionals and security experts), to be ready just in case the walls aren’t enough. And just like a castle has multiple gates and lookouts, health care networks need different kinds of security to make sure everything is buttoned up tight.

Here’s the thing, though – doing this isn’t as easy as it sounds. Hospitals and doctor’s offices need to keep up with the latest security stuff and make sure everyone working there knows how to keep things safe. And with technology always changing, that can be a pretty big job.
