Cybersecurity challenges continue to evolve, and healthcare providers continue to see increasing disruptions, losses, and business delays as a result. But while cybersecurity challenges mount, so do the best practices that can help shield providers from these issues. Join Reg Harnish, CEO of OrbitalFire Cybersecurity, as we discuss the state of cybersecurity for small healthcare providers, best practices for managing these challenges, and the trends we expect to see. In this session you will learn how to prioritize cybersecurity efforts, from HIPAA compliance to ransomware protection, and in the process, reduce the anxiety and stress from cybercrime, regulatory oversight, and audits.
