The April 15 webinar “Is Your CMMS Cyber Security Ready?” from Webinar Wednesday was eligible for 1 credit from the ACI. More than 200 people attended the live presentation and even more have viewed a recording of the session.
The 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Nuvolo, addressed how to protect and manage medical and IoT devices using an integrated solution with Ordr and Nuvolo. The webinar featured Ordr Vice President of Product Strategy Russell Rice as well as Nuvolo Senior Solution Consultants Kyle Holetz and Dustin Smith.
The trio discussed and demonstrated how integrating Ordr’s IoT and medical device security platform and Nuvolo’s cybersecurity-enabled CMMS solution can help individuals discover, risk-assess and improve the security and utilization of critical health care devices. With attacks on health care practitioners increasing during the COVID-19 outbreak, organizations must accurately inventory their devices, understand their risks and protect themselves from attacks like WannaCry, Bluekeep and ransomware before they impact the business.
The webinar also included a quick overview by Kaiser Permanente Ventures on why solving these problems are critical to health care organizations, and why they invested in both Nuvolo and Ordr.
