The recent Webinar Wednesday session “Cybersecurity Insights with Scripps Health: Protecting Healthcare Networks” is eligible for 1 credit from the ACI. The webinar was sponsored by Claroty, formerly Medigate by Claroty.
Presenters Ty Greenhalgh, Healthcare Industry Principal, Claroty, and Luke Karkosh, Senior Director of Enterprise Architecture, Scripps Clinic, provided insights and answered questions from attendees during the webinar.
HHS has proposed changes to the HIPAA Security Rule requiring new comprehensive network segmentation and enhanced access controls. Karkosh explored how Scripps has strengthened its medical device cybersecurity with advanced network protection strategies.
Attendees were able to learn how to minimize lateral movement, protect electronic health information (ePHI), and comply with evolving regulations. They gained actionable insights to build a resilient, compliant cybersecurity framework focused on securing medical devices and how to address the unique challenges faced by device owners in healthcare environments.
Key takeaways included:
- how changes to HIPAA will impact HTM and Clinical Engineers
- why visibility is crucial for effective network segmentation
- how segmentation reduces the risk of intruder access to sensitive systems
The webinar drew 80 attendees for the live presentation and a recording of the webinar is available for on-demand viewing at WebinarWednesday.live.
