Taking the Risk Out of Healthcare
Happy Holidays!
We at Censinet would like to extend our warmest holiday greetings to each one of you. While the past year has indeed been challenging for many of us on the frontlines of healthcare cybersecurity, it’s been inspiring to witness our community’s tireless dedication to safeguarding patient care from cyber threats. So, as we bid farewell to 2023, we’re filled with optimism for the year ahead.
Looking forward to 2024, we are excited to share the insights from the second annual Healthcare Cybersecurity Benchmarking Study, and we’re eager to collaborate with our customers on navigating the newly proposed HHS Cybersecurity Performance Goals to drive even greater resiliency across the industry. In addition, we look forward to seeing all of you at ViVE and HIMSS – these events are always a highlight, offering us a chance to share, learn, and grow together.
Until then, may your holiday season be filled with joy and well-deserved rest. Here’s to a safe, prosperous, and resilient 2024!
