針對醫療體系的網路攻擊日益頻繁，引發安全疑慮
Rising Cyberattacks Against Healthcare Systems Spark Safety Concerns

針對醫院的網路攻擊不再僅止於竊取私人資料；它們已成為嚴重的病患安全危機。
Cyberattacks against hospitals are no longer just about stealing private data; they have become a critical patient safety crisis.
隨著醫療系統日益數位化，駭客正尋找有利可圖的方式來中斷臨床運作，往往導致危及生命的後果。
As medical systems become increasingly digitized, hackers are finding lucrative ways to disrupt clinical operations, often with life-threatening results.
當勒索軟體將醫院員工拒於電子健康紀錄、診斷影像，甚至是關鍵醫療設備之外時，衝擊是立即性的。
When ransomware locks hospital staff out of electronic health records, diagnostic imaging, and even critical medical devices, the impact is immediate.
醫院可能被迫轉移救護車、延遲緊急手術，並被迫回歸緩慢且依賴人工的紙本作業。
Hospitals may be forced to divert ambulances, delay urgent surgeries, and revert to slow, manual paper-based processes.
醫療保健提供者是首要目標，因為醫療資料極具價值，且醫院營運完全無法容忍停機，往往感受到需迅速支付贖金的巨大壓力。
Healthcare providers are prime targets because medical data is incredibly valuable and hospitals operate with zero tolerance for downtime, often feeling immense pressure to pay ransoms quickly.
專家現在強調「網路安全即病患安全」，敦促領導者不應僅將網路安全視為資訊科技問題，而應將其視為臨床照護的基本支柱。
Experts now emphasize that 'Cyber Safety is Patient Safety,' urging leaders to view cybersecurity not just as an IT issue, but as a fundamental pillar of clinical care.
