About this event
It is estimated that about 70% of healthcare organizations and 55% of small to medium businesses faced severe operational delays following the Crowdstrike outage. The healthcare sector alone is estimated to have faced financial losses of around $1.9 billion as a result of the outage. These losses were due to service interruptions, delays in procedures, and the costs associated with implementing emergency cybersecurity measures.
In the wake of the recent global outage caused by a faulty CrowdStrike update, the importance of robust patch management and comprehensive backup strategies has never been clearer.
This webinar will delve into the best practices for patching your organization against known vulnerabilities and preparing for unexpected disruptions. We'll discuss the critical steps to ensure your systems are protected, how to implement backup plans that minimize downtime, and the key takeaways from the CrowdStrike incident that highlight the necessity of multiple layers of defense.
Whether you’re managing IT for a small business or are part of a critical infrastructure organization, this session will equip you with the knowledge to enhance your resilience against cyber threats.
