Quick update and invitation from Michael: starting to explore rolling out services and improving the Straight Talk Framework. If you’re up to discuss with me - I’ll offer a brief overview and then a “setup for Straight Talk”  review to explore how to get you started. It’s a real offer because I know we’ll both learn. And then I’ll get a better sense of where to focus and how to help more people in our industry.

Note on yahoo: we’ll talk to Shawn later

 

How are Healthcare Data Breach Victims Affected by Attacks?

• It opens with some hype: “Healthcare cybersecurity attacks are much more prevalent and common because the industry typically has weaker approaches to data security, states”
• What’s to like? Maybe? → someone is working to explore the potential actual harm from breaches
• This article, however, is just an attack
• Why it matters? People read this stuff. They reinforce it. Fiction becomes fact because it gets repeated so much

We're told data breaches cost millions on average - but this security study disagrees

• I routinely push back on the ponemon $$ thrown around each year
• The conclusion here concerns me - feels like we lept too far -- that now no one will invest in security?
• Stop it. That’s not what it means. It means we have to seek better alignment, understand and measure our value better, and focus on creating value instead of just doing things
• It also means maybe the regulations need to slow down a bit. They do nothing but distract focus and waste money. And yeah, I get it - this sort of “research” is a call for more regulation because otherwise, no incentive. That’s rubbish.
