Listen "Defending healthcare in cyberspace"
Episode Synopsis
Healthcare is coming under an increasing volume of cyber attacks, especially since the pandemic.
And attacks are spreading to smaller health care outfits, such as ambulance services, suppliers to the health care system, and the pharmaceutical industry.
Much of this is being driven by ransomware, but we are also seeing more complex attacks.

Our guest is Trevor Dearing, Director of Critical Infrastructure at Illumio, who reports that a growing percentage of his work now involves the health sector.
