Should you NEVER pay after a ransomware attack?

In this episode I speak with Frank Riccardi about cybersecurity in healthcare and the event that triggered much more cyber accountability for the C-suite.

Here are some of the highlights:

Why healthcare workers are prone to social engineering attacks
Reasons you SHOULD and should NOT pay after ransomware attacks
Managing shadow IT after acquisitions/mergers
Why every member of the C-suite must understand cyber
The importance of a culture of reporting

Frank is a former C-level executive with 25 years of experience developing compliance and privacy programs for large healthcare systems comprised of hospitals, physician practice groups, urgent care centers, and other healthcare organizations.

I really enjoyed Frank's description of shadow IT! I always thought of an employee who is using an unauthorized application, but I never thought of it from the standpoint of an acquisition/merger.

What stood out most to you? Whatever your thoughts are, feel free to let me know in the comments!
