About this Session:
If there is one thing that we can all agree on, it?s that the digital world and emerging technologies have made healthcare more convenient, more accessible and the outcomes more successful. However, the increased reliance on technology also harbors inherent risks, especially for the healthcare sector, which is considered highly vulnerable to cyberattacks. With so much to lose in its databases, coupled with limited resources on staff, the healthcare sector is a prime target. Between the reliance on telehealth that took shape during COVID, the sensitive data that online medical records hold, and the incredible technological advances that keep people alive, our medical community is under immense pressure to keep patients safe online and in person. Please join Deputy Director Nitin Natarajan of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency as he discusses what makes the healthcare sector so susceptible to cyberattacks, what those in healthcare can do to prepare and what CISA has to offer in terms of free resources. Speaker: Nitin Natarajan, Deputy Director @ Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
