Inside the Breach: How Identity Attacks Threaten Healthcare Resilience

Recorded Tuesday, August 19

Healthcare is the top target for cyberattacks, and identity is the primary attack path. In 2024, more than 80% of major healthcare breaches involved compromised credentials. At the same time, 88% of ransomware attacks exploited Active Directory.

This session will explore how attackers silently move through hybrid identity systems, including on-prem Active Directory, Entra ID, and Microsoft 365, bypassing defenses and disrupting patient care.

You will learn...

  • Why identity is the biggest security gap in healthcare
  • How attackers use techniques like DCSync, Golden Ticket, and group abuse
  • The most common blind spots across AD, Entra ID, and Microsoft 365
  • What analysts recommend for identity-first security in healthcare
  • How to respond with real-time detection, safe delegation, and rapid recovery

This session is valuable for anyone responsible for patient data protection, HIPAA compliance, or healthcare IT operations.
