Rethinking Cybersecurity in Healthcare in the Age of AI | Experts

Event Overview

Healthcare is among the most vulnerable to cyber attack — and often the most targeted. Security leaders are challenged with defending against a rapidly evolving threat landscape while trying to build a more resilient organization. And the stakes — in some cases, human life — could not be higher. Join WWT Chief Healthcare Advisor Dr. Sanaz Cordes and Field CISO Robert Geis as they talk about how healthcare CISOs can manage and secure the increased burden of data, balance cyber risk as it relates to AI and what's happening from a regulatory perspective.

How to Get Cloud Right in Healthcare to Drive Innovation | Experts

Compared to other industries, healthcare has been slow to adopt modern cloud strategies. As health systems are increasingly taxed with connecting people, technology and data in completely new ways, the challenges associated with operating in a traditional, on-premises model became increasingly visible. Join WWT Chief Healthcare Advisor Dr. Sanaz Cordes and Director of Cloud Platforms Jack French as they talk about lessons learned from other industries that are broadly further along in their cloud journeys, the practical benefits and outcomes a sophisticated cloud posture can have on the clinician and staff experience, and how leaders should think about their cloud strategy to drive speed and scale while protecting sensitive data.
