Summary/Abstract: In all business sectors, choosing the right security framework is critical to help define an organization’s security posture, identify gaps, and develop strategies for improvement. The increasing reliance of healthcare organizations brings numerous benefits, but also exposes them to a greater number of malicious attacks from cyberspace. In this paper, we present the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, which can be of help to healthcare institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina in determining priorities in solving cyber security challenges. While the NIST Cybersecurity Framework will not protect digital assets and data by itself, it can provide a guide for healthcare organizations to manage their own assets, gaining a complete view of their organization and its vulnerabilities. Using the NIST Cybersecurity Framework as a framework can also be helpful in protecting personal data that is processed in healthcare systems.
