Recorded early November 2020.
This is an episode we recorded in early November but got pushed back in the end of year shuffle to make production schedules work. We’re happy to put this one out now with somewhat belated takes on (somewhat recent) health care ransomware attacks. We discuss a few key questions that are rather evergreen. Why is health care targeted in this way (and other verticals for that matter)? What defines a “high value” target to a ransomware actor? How can targeted entities better defend themselves?
The timeline:
01:30 — Roundtable: Feel that end-of-year burn...
07:20 — Ransomware heating up in health care and government organizations
11:40 — How actors see potential targets
16:30 — Defense for health care organizations
22:00 — Closing thoughts, parting shots
