The increasing digitization of healthcare systems has introduced significant cybersecurity challenges, exposing sensitive patient data to potential threats and attacks. This paper presents a Cybersecurity Framework for Healthcare Systems aimed at ensuring data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The proposed framework integrates advanced security mechanisms such as encryption, multi-factor authentication, intrusion detection systems, and secure access control to protect healthcare infrastructure. It also incorporates risk assessment and threat modeling techniques to identify vulnerabilities and mitigate potential cyber threats. The framework is designed to support compliance with healthcare regulations and standards while ensuring secure data exchange across interconnected systems. Additionally, integration with machine learning techniques enables intelligent threat detection and anomaly identification in real-time. Experimental observations indicate that the proposed approach enhances system resilience, reduces the risk of data breaches, and improves overall security posture. The study highlights the importance of robust cybersecurity frameworks in safeguarding healthcare systems and ensuring trust in digital health environments.
