Fireside Chat: Securing Healthcare

The healthcare industry faces many unique cybersecurity challenges directly tied to patient safety, privacy, and operational efficiency. Many hospitals use outdated systems and are reluctant to adopt newer, AI-enabled technologies. Their hesitation stems from concerns about these tools making autonomous decisions that could impact patients’ well-being. Additionally, many healthcare organizations are fragmented entities that came together via mergers and acquisitions, making it difficult to secure and monitor disparate systems.

Key challenges include:

• Complexity around security teams’ ability to achieve comprehensive visibility and real-time monitoring across siloed departments running on fragmented digital systems.
• Varying user behaviors across different entities due to cultural and technological differences, further complicating threat detection and response efforts.
• Risks associated with adopting modern, AI-enabled security tools.

In this webinar on demand, NMC Healthcare’s Associate Vice President of Information Security, Abhinav Kumar, and Securonix’s Chief Customer Officer, Al Arun, host a fireside chat with to explore these challenges and discuss strategies to strengthen cybersecurity in the healthcare industry.
