    Hi All,

    NIST/NCCOE just published Mitigating Cybersecurity Risk in Telehealth Smart Home Integration

    The National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) has released the final project description for Mitigating Cybersecurity Risk in Telehealth Smart Home Integration. The publication of this project description continues to further identify project requirements and scope, along with hardware and software components for use in a laboratory environment.

    What is this project about?
    Telehealth technology and its use has advanced alongside the "Internet of Things (IoT)". Healthcare solutions may allow patients to use consumer-grade IoT devices to review their health information and interact with systems operated by a healthcare delivery organization (HDO). Individuals may use IoT devices to obtain lab results, schedule visitations with their care team, set reminders for appointments, or request prescription refills, for example.
    IoT brings novel capabilities to consumers in their homes. However, along with those capabilities, the nature of IoT compels technology adopters to rethink how they may need to secure their home environment and the networks with which their homes interconnect. This project will result in a practice guide that describes a reference architecture for smart home integration with healthcare systems as part of a telehealth program.
