Information

Healthcare cybersecurity historically prioritized data confidentiality, but the threat has shifted toward the disruption of care delivery. Hospital resilience is now tied to Operational Technology (OT) — elevators, HVAC, and power systems. For many HDOs, these unmanaged assets represent a visibility gap, often allowing attackers to move laterally into clinical environments.

Join us to trace a cyber-physical attack and learn why securing the physical environment is a patient safety imperative. We will discuss bridging the gap between Facilities and IT Security and translating technical exposure into executive language.

Learn to:
Trace the "kill chain" from building systems to care disruption.
Quantify the business risk of downtime and unmanaged asset exposure.
Bridge the operational divide between IT Security and Facilities.
