Partner Mark VonderHaar is speaking at the San Diego Health IT Summit, taking place on January 24-25, 2017.
The healthcare cyberattack is not a matter of if, but when. According to recent research, provider organizations now receive up to several attack attempts per month that could escalate to enterprise-level concerns. Attackers make no exceptions.
Risk management strategies and the rise of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) within healthcare are viable starting points, but on the horizon are more regulations and more ominous demands. The Office of Civil Rights (OCR) has begun its often referenced Phase 2 of its HIPAA Audit Program, featuring new areas of focus for healthcare. In addition to this, new emerging threats continue to spawn from the dark web, including high-powered variants of ransomware and malware, such as: Cryptolocker, Locky, Samas, Zues, and the Shifu Trojan. What is required to keep PHI protected, and to ensure your organization does not join the OCR “Wall of Shame”?
In this session, Mark joins a diverse panel of experts as they turn their focus to 6 months from now, focusing on forward-thinking risk management evolutions for the immediate future. Join this interactive panel discussion on top potential threats, upcoming policies and legal considerations associated with breaches, and the risk management strategies to position your organization to prevent the next-generation of cybersecurity threats.
