Protecting hospitals to ensure patient safety, data confidentiality and business continuity

They illustrate how insecure devices increase the cyber attack surface and pose a significant risk to the operational continuity of hospitals and patient safety.

Say, in terms of regulations post-COVID, are you seeing any government movement in that direction? Making sure hospitals are better prepared for the day after COVID? Do you see hospitals actually better prepared for the next pandemic following this crisis?

Of course, the public responded "Wait a minute, I don't really care about the esoteric of HIPAA. Did you really send patient identified data from a hospital to a tech company?".

Do you see hospitals staying this way long-term? Do you really see people not going into the hospitals in the next few years? Not coming in?

They're going to demand more and more care at a distance, and hospitals that are going to survive and thrive are going to need to provide that.
