We will take an in-depth look into how ransomware and patient identity theft is impacting practices across the US. 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 protection from the advanced threats that are affecting practices. HIPAA compliance can be a challenging and time-consuming endeavor for most practices. Learn effective and efficient ways of implementing HIPAA in your practice.

Learning objectives:

• Protect your practice from ransomware attacks
• Recognize the differences between IT companies and cybersecurity companies
• Identify technologies and solutions that can help minimize the chances of a cyberattack
• Effectively implement HIPAA Compliance
