Description

When cybercriminals lock up a children’s hospital, denying treatment to kids with cancer, you realize just how dark the world of ransomware has become. Healthcare isn’t just another target, it’s the lifeline of our society, and it’s under siege. In this episode of the Thales Security Sessions, Dr. Adrian Mayers, CISO of Premera Blue Cross, joins me to expose the reality of this growing “feeding frenzy” of cyberattacks on healthcare, the rise of AI-driven threats, and what it truly takes to defend the systems, and the people, who keep us alive. It is a lesson on the human element of defense that can be applied to any industry.
