Class action lawsuits have been filed against Oracle in Texas following recent cyber incidents, with lawyers alleging poor security framework, inadequate staff training, and failure to implement preventative software. The Health Sector Coordinating Council's cybersecurity working group testified to Congress about medical device security and the suspended HIPAA security rule update, citing unrealistic cost estimates and implementation challenges. Additionally, critical zero-day vulnerabilities in Apple devices require immediate updates, plus a warning about a GPS app with 320,000 downloads that could allow stalkers to steal location data in real time.Remember, Stay a Little Paranoid X: This Week Health LinkedIn: This Week Health Donate: Alex’s Lemonade Stand: Foundation for Childhood Cancer
