Webinar Description:
In it’s annual report on the state of cyber defenses in all industries, IBM routinely reports on several disturbing trends it finds in the surveys it performs. Over the past 18 months, Kodiak has been doing deep scans of healthcare provider cyber networks and defenses. What we found not only corroborated IBMs survey findings with actual results, but are likely worse.
The good news is there is something you can do about it. And getting started isn’t relatively expensive.
In this presentation we will start by reviewing the primary points of the IBM survey and compare them with the Kodiak results. We will then move on to what you can do to understand if your organization is bearing these risks and what you can do to get started measuring them for remediation. Finally, because the regulatory environment is changing rapidly and will likely add urgency to this effort in the next 12 months, we will briefly discuss the regulatory changes so that you will have a sense of the whole picture.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the average state of cyber defenses in healthcare
-
Explain how to measure the state of cyber defenses in your company against the average discussed
- List plans and methods to begin the measurement and mitigation of your environment
- Discuss the coming regulatory changes and why they are important for your organization
