Confronted with seemingly insurmountable challenges in harsh environments, the mission to secure highly-sensitive patient data can seem like a reality survival exercise.   The information security workforce in healthcare is responsible for supporting the well-being of the organization and the individual patients that rely on its life-critical services and information. To survive in a hostile environment; much like wilderness survival; people must have access to the right training and tools.

This Webinar will examine the most common survival strategies for healthcare leaders to overcome challenges in recruiting, retaining and allocating resources for mission-critical information security programs. Common Survival Challenges include:

• Recruiting the right skills
• Retaining the cybersecurity workforce
• Attracting and retaining diverse worker groups
• Staffing issues during mergers & acquisitions
• Meeting demand and deadlines during staffing shortfalls

A well-designed cybersecurity staffing strategy can help organizations to not only survive, but also thrive in harsh conditions.
