From penalties and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) violations to denial of service availability, healthcare providers are forced to invest in security for endpoints, Internet of Things (IoT) devices and surgical devices (or other medical care equipment) while facing challenges in manpower, expertise and integration with existing systems. The challen
$CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc.(CRWD)$There’s no stopping when it comes to scaling your business, so why should your security remain stagnant? With your organization constantly expanding and your IT and security stack increasing in tools, your threat landscape is bound to grow with it. And by leveraging an increasing number of external applications and software-as-a-service (SaaS)-delivered solutions, you’re broadening your attack surface for new threats to take hold.
