The prospect of bigger players digitizing the distribution of pharmaceuticals would spark excitement in an alternate business reality, but you're likely more nervous about the additional security measures or protocols that might be necessary to pursue new partners.

As the COVID-19 vaccine nears distribution - and with hackers already trying to undermine the process - the steps you take now to shore up security can pay dividends later as more major new players enter the market.

Automate parts of the security process: Automation helps companies track and monitor IT more efficiently - an extremely important tool to have especially now that teams are remote.

Pursue holistic threat detection: Detecting real-time security events and threats is a requisite requirement of modern security practices.

Amazon's entrance into pharmaceuticals is just one of what will likely be many new opportunities for pharma and healthcare companies - as long as you have a carefully considered security strategy.
