July 22, 2022 – Google Cloud is announcing today that it is partnering with Health Information Sharing and Analysis Center (Health-ISAC) as an ambassador partner. Google Cloud is the first and only major cloud provider to join the organization.
Health-ISAC is a trusted community of critical infrastructure owners and operators within the global Healthcare and Public Health sector (HPH). The community is primarily focused on sharing timely, actionable, and relevant information with each other—including intelligence on threats, incidents, vulnerabilities, mitigation strategies, and best practices. Health-ISAC also encourages building relationships and networking through worldwide educational events and research papers. Working groups and committees focus on topics of importance to the sector, and its member-vetted Community Services offer enhanced services to leverage the Health-ISAC community to help better secure the intersection of healthcare and technology.
As an ambassador, Google Cloud will share its intelligence, best practices and experts to help secure healthcare and public health sector networks. The aim of the partnership is to have Google’s teamwork with defenders and leaders in the global health sector and to share knowledge about building and deploying secure technology.
