Topic: How Ransomware Can Cripple Your Practice with One Wrong Click

Speaker: Gary Salman, Chief Executive Officer, Black Talon Security

Topic Details: Understanding the Facts and Myths Related to Ransomware and Identity Theft

We will provide you with comprehensive information on how ransomware and patient identity theft is impacting practices across the U.S.

Practices often have a false sense of security that their IT vendor is providing adequate security to mitigate the risks of a data breach. We will discuss the differences between IT vendors and cybersecurity companies and why practices should engage with a cybersecurity company to provide the additional protection from the advanced threats that are affecting practices.

Why your biggest risk is not a malpractice claim, a fire, theft, a sexual harassment claim or a flood...it's a cyberattack.

Are you mentally and financially prepared to be shut down for 2-4 weeks after you recover your data?

How will you schedule patients?

How will you collect A/R?

How will you file claims?

And, how will you handle the negative PR - including your reputation and lost patient loyalty and trust?

At the end of this presentation, you will have a thorough understanding of the following:

How to protect your practice from ransomware attacks and identity theft
Technologies and solutions that can help minimize the chances of a cyberattack
The differences between IT companies and cybersecurity companies
The steps you need to take NOW!
