VisConnect: A Visionary Roundtable to Connect & Improve Acute Care

Cyber-attacks can paralyze hospitals and severely disrupt patient care. Ransomware has been the most common type of attack, mainly targeting information systems and sensitive data. Targeted attacks on medical devices, especially in acute care, can pose a direct threat to patient health. Simultaneously, the number of connected medical devices is rapidly increasing making them attractive targets. In addition, many of these connected medical devices can transfer data to the cloud, which poses additional challenges.

This year’s session will tackle two fundamental areas: the cybersecurity priorities hospitals must address and how MedTech manufacturers can collaborate to safeguard patients from health risks and data theft. Joining us will be Dražen Milković, Zoran Dobrosavljević, and Oliver Brahmstädt who will share firsthand insights including a ransomware attack on KBC Zagreb and measurements on how to protect hospital networks, patient data, and financial resources.
