Attivo Networks to Reveal New Operations Playbooks for Healthcare Threats at HIMSS Conference

Cyber Security Session Will Deliver Information on How Deception Technology Can Dramatically Improve Incident Response


FREMONT, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 9, 2017) - Attivo Networks®, the award-winning leader in deception for cybersecurity defense, today announced that it will be presenting new insights into threat operations playbooks for healthcare incident response in a session entitled: "Threat Operations Playbooks for Healthcare Professionals" at the national HIMSS conference.

Session attendees will hear about how providers are combatting threats with in-network visibility, deception-based detection tools, and how the Attivo Networks ThreatOps solution improves incident response handling when network and medical devices are attacked. 

"Advanced threats and ransomware attacks are plaguing healthcare organizations and it's time to change the game," said Carolyn Crandall, Chief Marketing Officer for Attivo Networks. "Deception technology can now play a significant role in improving incident response time, by automatically taking disparate attack information to correlate and display it within one dashboard where attacks can be scored and playbooks created. The playbooks can then be used to create repeatable processes, simplifying incident response."

Robert Crisp, VP of Field Technical Operations for Attivo Networks will be leading the session which will take place Monday, February 20th from 1:30PM to 2:00PM EST in Booth 376 in the cyber pavilion of the conference. The conference is taking place in the Orange County Convention Center. The session ID is CSO5.
