The Cyber Resilience Advantage SPECIAL EDITION: Your Path to Cyber Resilience

We've been doing so much lately that I haven't had space to tell you about all of it in our regularly scheduled newsletter.

So, we made this special edition because I don't want you to miss out on something that might help you solve a problem that's front of mind. Or, solve a problem that's been on your back burner for some time because no other solution has been available.

Before we get to the details, I'm grateful to everyone who's worked with us on these projects:

My most recent contribution to the SecureWorld newsletter...

Have you noticed that the latest cyberattacks are threatening the very existence of lots of smaller medical clinics and their doctor's ability to deliver care? Think urgent care centers, cancer treatment, and primary care doctors. But with risk usually comes opportunity, which is what Change Healthcare's competitor named Availity took advantage of. Check out my article on the SecureWorld website to learn more. Click the image above to read about the systemic changes needed to counter the cyberattacks plaguing the healthcare sector.
