George Jackson, Director of Health IT and Digital Health, Clearwater, speaks with Nathan Kottkamp, Partner, Williams Mullen, about the legal ramifications that health systems need to be prepared for when planning for the potential of ransomware attacks. They discuss the importance of cybersecurity insurance, legal liabilities for third parties that are involved with a health system experiencing a breach, legal issues surrounding ransomware payments, and the three components of incident response.
In this episode, we discuss the critical role of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems in cybersecurity, particularly in healthcare. We explore the concept of 'EDR killers'—malicious software designed to disable EDR solutions—and the conditions that make these attacks successful.
