Episode Description
Healthcare CISOs weigh in on cyber threats to the healthcare sector including AI-enabled phishing, impersonation, HR and BEC scams, along with double and triple extortion where the institution, patients and employees are targeted by ransomware gangs.
“Extortion is getting really ugly—it’s hard to believe how amoral the threat actors are,” explains our guest Errol Weiss, CSO of the Health-ISAC.
He and Michael Bray, CISO of the Vancouver Clinic, also explain the value of information sharing among peer organizations, managing attack surfaces, and educating leadership.
