Security’s Role in Digital Transformation

Tom Field

Senior Vice President - Editorial, ISMG

Digital transformation: It’s the present and future not just of business, but of the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries. Providers, manufacturers, and other entities are working quickly to adapt to the speed and convenience of new demands, all the while balancing regulatory requirements, competitive pressures, and cybersecurity risks.

As healthcare and pharmaceutical organizations roll out new patient portals and other innovations – and as internal applications move to the cloud and employees, partners and patients interact outside the traditional perimeter – what proactive role should security play? With research suggesting almost 70% of CISOs have found malware hidden on their network for an unknown period of time, how can they ensure they have the visibility they need into threats and anomalies on their networks? And finally, how can security leaders in these sectors avoid being obstacles and actually become catalysts for change in digital transformation?

If you’re looking for new answers to these questions, then please join ISMG’s Tom Field for an exclusive roundtable discussing how healthcare and pharmaceutical security organizations play a productive role in their enterprises’ digital transformations.

Discussion topics will include:

Where is your organization in its own digital transformation, and what role does security play?
What specific security and regulatory obstacles do you face in enabling digital transformation?
How is your organization embracing technology to advance your security agenda?

Joining Tom to provide expert insight and case studies is Stuart Reed, VP of Products at Nominet.
