The healthcare industry remains a prime target for cyberattacks, with the frequency and impact of these breaches escalating annually. In 2024, the healthcare sector faces severe threats from unauthorized access, ransomware, and third-party vulnerabilities, leading to significant financial and operational disruptions

A staggering 37% of healthcare organizations are still unprepared for these cyber threats, highlighting the urgent need for robust cybersecurity measures. At the core of these defenses lies Identity and Access Management (IAM), which plays a pivotal role in securing sensitive patient data and ensuring operational continuity.

Hosted by Connex, this roundtable discussion will explore the critical role of unified IAM in enhancing healthcare cybersecurity with experts at Ping Identity and PwC. Topics will include:

 Integrating IAM with disparate systems and Electronic Health Records (EHRs) to improve security

Implementing Zero Trust and Fraud Protection organization-wide

Mitigating insider and third-party threats

Experts will also discuss adopting IAM to comply with healthcare regulations such as HIPAA, TEFCA, and the 21st Century Cures Act, and how advanced IAM solutions can prevent fraud without compromising user experience. This session aims to provide a forum for healthcare leaders to share knowledge and strategies needed to protect their organizations from evolving cyber threats.
