Preparing for the Big Hack in Healthcare

March 20, 2019 - 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EST

Increasingly, hackers are targeting the healthcare sector as they recognize the vulnerabilities that are inherent in public institutions. Old problems of open physical environments, diagnostic equipment age, and user error are compounded by new growth in EHRs, increased system interconnectedness, and emerging IoT applications.

Overall, the system has increased risk to patient data, institutional data, and operational continuity.

Is your organization prepared for what’s coming? How do you help non-technical people understand the notion of risk mitigation and layered security? What happens after the inevitable cyber-attack?

On Wednesday, March 20, 2019, join ITWC CIO Jim Love and Mark Gaudet from the Canadian Internet Registration Authority for Preparing for the Big Hack in Healthcare.

In this one-hour webinar, Love and Gaudet will discuss the rising threat to healthcare organizations from an increasingly sophisticated and organized breed of hacker.

This session will include:

  • An overview of Canadian cybersecurity threat data collected by CIRA’s D-Zone DNS Firewall, which is currently protecting hospitals around the country. This data will underline the risks, highlight the vulnerabilities, and identify the trends CIRA is observing in large and small institutions.
  • Case studies of real breach incidents and how (and why) they could have been prevented with a layered defence strategy.
  • A discussion around what you can do now to prepare for a future where you may be a hackers’ primary target
