Incorporating a Prevention Mindset into Threat Detection and ResponseThreat detection and response systems, by definition, are reactive because they have to wait for damage to be done before finding the attack. With a prevention-mindset, security teams can proactively anticipate the attacker's next move, rather than reacting to specific threats or trying to detect the latest techniques in real-time.
The report covers areas enterprises should focus on:
What positive response looks like.
Improving security hygiene.
Combining preventive actions with red team efforts.
Incident Readiness and Building Response Playbook
In this special report, learn the Xs and Os of any good security incident readiness and response playbook.

Who is liable when the patient's health is further compromised because they did not receive the proper procedure/care at the right time?
Operating premise is that the healthcare entity pays the ransom, and gets the data back. If the data modified and the patients health is compromised as a result of incorract/inaccurate information in their E.H.R, whos assume liability? Who validates the integrity of the data following a recovery from the ransomware attack?
Most hospitals have standby procedures which they fall back on during a major IT outage. Older physicians came of age in a pen & paper world and can generally switch back to paper based notes, orders, and patient records. But younger Docs are generally clueless in this regard. They have always worked in the E.H.R and digital environment -they never had the pen & paper experience. So thier success is dependent on regular training and drills.
Some hospitals keep their standby procedures on the computer/network. This makes for tough sledding when your off the network or down to minimal electrical power.
