With digital AI-powered medicine being on the rise, the risk of cyber-attacks has become a reality. ‘You have been hacked. Pay or we will shut down your system!’ AI systems are not just subject to cyber-risks like any other computer-based system, but to new risks and new types of attacks which have previously existed. This chapter argues that inevitably there will have to be a change in medical practice.
