Welcome solo and group practice owners! We are Liath Dalton and Evan Dumas, your co-hosts of Group Practice Tech.

We cover what we know and what we don’t know yet; resources to help you take practical steps; how many people are impacted by this breach; the ongoing investigations; ransomware attacks; who is liable for this incident; maintaining operational continuity; and the importance of being proactive in your security practices.
