Healthcare CEO Peer Advisory Group

1st Wednesday of the month from | 8:45 am – Noon |

UPCOMING MEETING:

via ZOOM: 8:45 AM to 11:45 AM

How to Prevent Security “Oops” in Your Organization

If the highest levels of the U.S. government can suffer a major security lapse, How can you protect your organization?
For years we’ve been hearing about hackers, including North Korea’s Lazarus Group (which netted ~$3 billion in crypto), and “Ransomware-as-a-Service” hackers like REvil that reaped over $180 million in 2021 alone. More recently, United’s Change Healthcare’s attackers stole sensitive data from ~190 million members, incurring >$3 billion in direct and business interruption expenses, plus billions in provider loans.

You don’t have to be the U.S. government or UnitedHealthcare to suffer a huge loss to a hacker or sneaky competitor. Beyond the financial loss, operational disruption, reputational harm, and legal costs, 60% of small and medium-sized businesses that have been hacked close within six months of a cyberattack.

During our Members’ Discussion , please plan to share steps you’ve taken to protect your data, intellectual property, and bank accounts from potential (or real) cyber-criminals, unintentional leaks, and even from trusted employees and resources. We’ll also look to hear What Other Issues Are Keeping You Up Nights?

Then, our Featured Guest Member, Oli Thordarson, CEO of Alvaka, will present “How to Detect & Counter the Latest AI-Powered Cyber Attacks.” Oli will be joined by Scott Koller, JD, one of the nation’s top privacy and data security attorneys.

Oli Thordarson has been keeping Alvaka customers up and running 365 days a year, since 1982, with their 24/7 Live Support, Network Management, and Patching. More recently, building on its Backup & Disaster Recovery expertise, Alvaka has helped hundreds of customers with their Ransomware Recovery, offering rapid response and remediation service to help organizations recover from ransomware attacks efficiently.

Scott Koller, JD, was named a “Top Cyber Lawyer” by Daily Journal, with a practice focusing on data breach response and security compliance. Scott has counseled thousands of clients in investigating and responding to security incidents and data breaches. He is frequently sought to defend clients in connection with regulatory inquiries, including those from State health departments, the FTC, SEC, and HHS’s Office for Civil Rights.
