This week, the Congressional Research Service (CRS) published a report on “The Change Healthcare Cyberattack and Response Considerations for Policymakers”. After providing a brief overview of the ransomware attack on Change Healthcare and a discussion about the consequences and federal response to the incident, the report identifies three ‘information parity issues’:
• Coordination of offensive and
defensive actions,
• Knowledge of conditions in
decision making, and
• Information Sharing Reach.
Presumably, given the mission of the CRS, these issues were
identified to aid Congress in any response development efforts that members may
be interested in initiating.
