The recent “Operationalizing Medical Device Cybersecurity at UHS” webinar was sponsored by Asimily and eligible for 1 credit from the ACI.
In this 60-minute webinar, experts Chris Nowak, senior director at UHS, and Priyanka Upendra, senior director of customer success of Asimily, discussed medical device cybersecurity implementation at Universal Health Services. Attendees heard about the dos and don’ts of an implementation, the resources involved and how to improve HTM workflows by integrating cybersecurity. The speakers also discussed applicable regulations, standards and best practices that enable HTM professionals to sustain a medical device cybersecurity program through Asimily’s implementation and use.
The presenters also answered attendee questions following their presentation.
One question was, “Did you adopt the NIST cybersecurity framework to drive the proof-of-concept/pilot with Asimily and how?”
Nowak said, “Our IT team has many, many tools that they use to look at the network, and the security of the network, and the amount of data can be daunting. I think the Asimily tool has really helped them focus on what’s important, rather than the white noise, that can sometimes get the attention and waste time, precious time and resources, or inappropriate response.”
More than 130 people registered for the webinar. Attendees provided feedback via a survey that included the question, “What do you like best about the Webinar Wednesday webinar series?”
