Robert Braumuller to Take Part in Cybersecurity Panel at April WCA Presentation
On April 3, 2024, Robert Braumuller, a member of Bleakley Platt’s Information Technology & Cyber Security Practice Group, will be featured on a three-person All Access Healthcare panel, Cybersecurity: Impact on Healthcare, sponsored by the Westchester County Association.
The panel will discuss cybersecurity and proposed New York Hospital Cybersecurity Regulations in the context of increasing cyberattacks on health care providers by nation-state actors and other cybercriminals. On February 21 of this year, for example, Change Healthcare, a health care clearing house which normally processes fifteen billion healthcare transactions per year, was subject to a ransomware attack by BlackCat/ALPHV, a cyber-crime group believed to operate from Russia. The attack has frozen billions of dollars in payments to health care providers throughout New York and the United States. This session will discuss cybersecurity vulnerabilities and ways to defend against them.
This program will be held Wednesday, April 3 from 8:00 am – 10:00 am at 360 Hamilton Ave., White Plains, New York.
A continental breakfast and networking will precede the panel.
