Recent and ongoing events have caused the healthcare industry, and public health in general, to be in a state of high-alert. As most medical administration is digitized, this situation has put added demands on an already stressed IT infrastructure to securely deliver care.
At this time of heightened demands on delivery of care, we must be considerate of our roles to securely enable access to healthcare and answer these questions:
How do we maintain security, while not impacting patient care?
How can we deal with patient privacy issues if infrastructure becomes overwhelmed?
How will the cyber criminal community use this looming crisis to disrupt healthcare and take advantage of a frightened populace?
Given these challenges, it is incumbent upon cybersecurity professionals to work to get ahead of the stress. A Zero Trust strategy provides the simplest and most secure opportunity to secure important patient data, healthcare applications, and clinical systems.
Join Palo Alto Networks Field CTO John Kindervag, the creator of Zero Trust, as he discusses how you can leverage Zero Trust principles to add granular security to your health care systems.
