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 investigation and response handling when network and medical devices are attacked. 

"Healthcare organizations continue to be heavily targeted with advanced threats and ransomware. It's time to change the game," said Carolyn Crandall, Chief Marketing Officer for Attivo Networks. "Distributed Deception platforms are now playing a significant role in early detection and in improving incident response time, by automatically taking disparate attack information, auto-correlating 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."
