Digitalization and Cyberthreats

Where are we after 2 years of Pandemic?

This April 6th from 4 PM to 5 PM (CET) — 10 AM to 11 AM (ET) join us for a very special free online event!

What will I learn?

The convergence of technological platforms is creating an increasingly complex cyberthreats landscape. The COVID-19 pandemic has shifted business to remote work, contributing to widespread use of less protected devices and inconsistent network connections from home and other remote locations.
Moreover, malware and ransomware attacks are increasing in number and sophistication. Ransomware as a service (RaaS) has made it easier for various threat actors — including those who have little technical knowledge — to deploy ransomware against targets.
These threat events represent a significant concern for life science companies and healthcare organizations in general, where public safety is at stake. The scenario is getting worse by the lack of cyber professionals worldwide and the increasing cyber insurance prices.
It is critically important for organizations to be proactive in preventing threats and ensuring business continuity by having appropriate mitigation and response strategies through strong digital governance, security controls, and employee training.
