Thursday, January 20th, 2022 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CT

Cybersecurity is quickly becoming a board-level issue in healthcare services, enterprises and facilities. Increasingly, chief information security officers are being called in by company boards to present on the strategies and metrics of cybersecurity risks, exposures, breaches, mitigation, systems and technologies.

Learn from three of the top cybersecurity executives in healthcare and the co-inventor of one of the leading cybersecurity automated management and compliance tools.

The panel will discuss the most pressing board-level issues regarding cybersecurity and healthcare, including:

Cybersecurity strategy, planning, testing, metrics and reporting for IT infrastructures, telehealth, cloud-based systems and more.
Protecting patient information, facilities and network-attached medical devices, and ensuring HIPAA compliance.
Ransomware, zero-day, phishing, data breaches, insider threats, and DDoS – limiting the cyber attack surface
