Critical Partners: Cybersecurity and Internal Audit

2:00 PM - 3:50 PM

Session Synopsis

Phishing, ransomware, theft and loss of device or media, data loss (human error or malicious) and biomedical asset compromise are core cyber threats to all healthcare organizations. However, many healthcare organizations have limited resources to address these evolving threats while still maintaining regulatory compliance. That is why it is crucial for internal auditors to ensure their organizations are achieving “prevailing practices,” to demonstrate “alignment” with named frameworks and take full advantage of the HIPAA Safe Harbor Act of 2021 (HR 7898).

This session shares research along with the professional experience of Mark W. Dill as a practicing CISO and consultant.

In particular, Mark will share ideas (for organizations of all sizes and complexities) on how to align a security program with business and clinical objectives, develop stronger relationships between security and audit teams, focus efforts on the most important safeguards to implement, measure and mature and share insights of how deficient polices are often used against an organization, in litigation
