From New York to Nationwide: Preparing for the Future of Healthcare Security
Special Guests: Catholic Health of Long Island
A half-day virtual briefing for healthcare security and compliance leaders navigating rising threats, shifting regulations, and the coming updates to the HIPAA Security Rule.
Why Now?
Healthcare is entering 2026 with more uncertainty than clarity. Attacks are rising, the regulatory bar is shifting upward, and leaders are being asked to secure more with less. New York’s new requirements, combined with the anticipated HIPAA Security Rule modernization, are signaling what the next era of accountability will look like across the U.S.
This Exchange is designed to give you the clarity, the context, and the practical footing to lead your organization through the year ahead — whether you’re in New York or anywhere in the country.
What You’ll Learn
A Threat Outlook for 2026 That Actually Reflects the Real World
Hospitals are facing targeted, coordinated campaigns. Dave Bailey brings the data and patterns Clearwater is seeing across the country — not recycled predictions.
What New York’s Requirements Reveal About the Future of U.S. Regulation

Rob Kantrowitz (Kirkland & Ellis) and Andrew Mahler, JD (Clearwater) break down what NY is asking for now — and why it matters nationally.
How to Build a Strong, Manageable Cyber Program in a Resource-Constrained Reality
