Healthcare Cybersecurity: Lives are at Stake
Interview with Frank Riccardi about healthcare cybersecurity and the accountability of the C-suite.
Should you NEVER pay after a ransomware attack?
In this episode I speak with Frank Riccardi about cybersecurity in healthcare and the event that triggered much more cyber accountability for the C-suite.
Here are some of the highlights:
- Why healthcare workers are prone to social engineering attacks
- Reasons you SHOULD and should NOT pay after ransomware attacks
- Managing shadow IT after acquisitions/mergers
- Why every member of the C-suite must understand cyber
- The importance of a culture of reporting
Frank is a former C-level executive with 25 years of experience developing compliance and privacy programs for large healthcare systems comprised of hospitals, physician practice groups, urgent care centers, and other healthcare organizations.
I really enjoyed Frank’s description of shadow IT! I always thought of an employee who is using an unauthorized application, but I never thought of it from the standpoint of an acquisition/merger.
