Introducing All Points West with Karl West

With an extensive history in healthcare cybersecurity, he and Bill complete a deep dive on Sky Lakes Medical phishing incident and subsequent ransomware attack. How can security teams prevent these emails from ever reaching their organization’s inbox? How can training combat the heightened sophistication of ransomware attackers? What can your health system do to stay updated on the latest phishing campaigns and attacks? Segmentation can go a long way in preventing damage in a ransomware attack, but 80% of health systems may not have had the resources to prioritize this. Does your health system have a plan and prioritization for if you’re breached? Create tiered response and keep it brief before it is needed.Key Points:How does a ransomware attack begin? A successful phishing email [00:09:00]The increasing sophistication of phishing emails and how they observe your organization [00:14:30]How to keep your health system informed of the potential risks current phishing campaigns [00:21:00]Tracing the movement of ransomware attacks and how segmentation can make a difference [00:27:10]Preparing for a ransomware attack: having plan for when your system is down and ready for relaunch [00:34:20]Prioritizing your systems and creating an action plan before disaster strikes [00:45:00]

Newsday - Deep Dive into Sky Lakes Ransomware Event with Karl West

CISO Karl West

February 10, 2021: Cybersecurity. Don’t roll your eyes. This is serious stuff. There's stories out there of systems having been breached for over a year before they even know about it. Karl West, former CISO at Intermountain has moved over to Sirius Computer Solutions. He guides us through everything from architecture to governance, from incident response risk to e-discovery, forensics and artificial intelligence to compliance identity access. How do you catch security breaches efficiently and quickly? It starts with architecture. You MUST build programs, tools and processes around detection, response, and recovery. What about good governance? What about compliance? And what are the best methods out there today to ensure the person in front of the keyboard is someone you want on your system?Key Points:The NIST framework [00:08:40] The clearly defined response to security is people, processes and technologies [00:10:55] There’s so many different reporting models and governance models. Where should cybersecurity report to? [00:17:05] What is your tolerance for risk? Not the CISO tolerance. What's the business tolerance for risk? [00:21:30] Our security team were so busy responding that they were not able to be proactive in any way [00:27:05] Identity and access. Identity is the new perimeter. [00:31:05] Identity is making sure that the person on the other end of the line is who they say they are [00:33:55] Incident management and threatened vulnerability are the bread and butter, the block and tackle of cybersecurity [00:42:15] Sirius Computer Solutions
