Be Vigilant: A Look at Supply Chain Fraud in Healthcare


Listen Later

In a recent survey by Proofpoint, the average healthcare organization received about 200,000 emails from over 10,000 different 3rd party domains, including those belonging to research organizations, construction companies, grantors and foundations and insurers. Of these clients, 98% received some email-based threat and 97% received threats from at least one of their suppliers’ domains via impersonation or business email compromise. One trend stands out: today’s attacks target people, not just infrastructure.   

Cybercriminals are getting more sophisticated in their highly targeted social engineering attack tricks that look exactly like a legitimate email. The sheer volume and value of business conducted by email is a striking reason to focus on protecting your organization from supply chain fraud.   

In this virtual meet-up, we’ll discuss the most critical issues impacting healthcare IT and Security leaders today. We’ll highlight:   

-The unique risks and challenges of the supply chain in Covid-19 

-Heighten awareness about business email compromise in your health institution 

-Technology considerations to protect against email fraud
