Abstract (EN): <sec> <title>UNSTRUCTURED</title> <p>COVID-19 has challenged cybersecurity to the ultimate need of guarantying human¿s privacy and security. Although personal and sensitive health data are needed to better know, detect and control the disease, many related cybersecurity challenges and vulnerabilities need further analysis and proper discussion. The aim of this viewpoint is to expose, as well as increase awareness and discussion of COVID-19 consequences to cybersecurity and healthcare. This work focuses on issues already tackled by the literature but mainly identifies new ones, the authors believe must be thoroughly discussed and addressed.</p> </sec>
