Healthcare CISO andSecurity Leaders
Where Patient Safety Meets Cybersecurity
Two and a half days of intelligence briefings, boardroom-level strategy sessions, and executive networking designed for healthcare CISOs, security & risk leaders.
Why This Forum Exists
Healthcare CISO and Security Leaders
Healthcare organizations face a threat landscape unlike any other sector. A ransomware attack on a hospital does not just disrupt revenue - it delays surgeries, diverts ambulances, and puts patients at direct risk.
The Healthcare CISO & Cyber Resilience Forum brings together senior security leaders from health systems, payers, pharma, biotech, and medical device companies for candid, off-the-record conversations about the challenges unique to protecting healthcare infrastructure.
This is not a vendor expo. It is an invitation-only gathering built by practitioners, for practitioners - designed to accelerate the relationships and intelligence sharing that make healthcare more resilient.
Patient Safety at Stake
When healthcare systems go down, the impact is measured in lives, not just dollars. Our sessions focus on resilience strategies that prioritize continuity of care.
Targeted Threat Landscape
Healthcare remains one of the most targeted sectors. Learn from peers who have faced ransomware, data breaches, and nation-state actors first-hand.
Regulatory Complexity
Navigate HIPAA, state privacy laws, and emerging federal mandates with guidance from leaders who have operationalized compliance at scale.
AI & Connected Devices
From clinical AI to IoMT device sprawl, healthcare CISOs face a unique convergence of innovation and risk that demands sector-specific strategies.

What Leaders Said
Already wrote an email summary to our leaders, with 7 action items for various folks to follow up on.
Some of the topics will spur strategic discussions within my division as well with agency leadership.
Several takeaways that I will be able to use to enhance our strategy, optimize current processes, and improve our day to day.
I share the presentations with my team for review as well as to gauge if any vendors might meet our needs.
I like to hear from those that are living the issues... those that are doing it confirm real world discussions.
