Current Cyber Attacks Impacting Provider Practices | About this programIf a ransomware attack shut down your practice, what would you do? Ask anyone whose workplace has been victimized; they will tell you that preparation before an attack strikes is essential. Think of it this way: it's no longer a matter of whether you'll be subject to an attack, but when! A proactive plan is the best way to stave off these severe threats that can cripple your operations in a matter of minutes. Healthcare is a lucrative industry for hackers. In November 2022, Cyber Management Alliance identified the healthcare sector as a rapidly-emergency cybercriminal target.* Ransomware recently struck a Dallas-based ambulance company seizing its data and demanding a ransom payment for its "safe restoration." Attend this webinar to learn how to prepare for what could be an inevitable threat to your medical practice. Maxine Collins will walk through the different parts of your operations to determine whether you need to set up more security. She will outline how hackers can invade your EHR and Practice Management software systems, steal and encrypt your PHI, and hold your data ransom.
