Speaker: Christian Dameff (MD/Hacker)

Speaker Bio: Christian Dameff is an Emergency Physician, Clinical Informaticist, and researcher. He is also a hacker and security researcher interested in the intersection of healthcare, patient safety, and cybersecurity. He has spoken at some of the world’s most prominent hacker forums including DEFCON, RSA, Blackhat, Derbycon, BSides: Las Vegas, and is one of the cofounders of the CyberMed Summit, a novel multidisciplinary conference with emphasis on medical device and infrastructure cybersecurity.

Description: Healthcare delivery across the globe is critically and increasingly dependent on computerized hardware and software including electronic health records and connected medical devices. Healthcare cyber attacks have resulted in technology failure compromised data integrity, and breaches of sensitive patient information. Though the proliferation of cyber attacks in healthcare has raised serious concerns about patient privacy violations through healthcare data theft, the impacts of cyber attacks on patient safety and clinical outcomes are poorly understood. This talk will discuss historical barriers to developing a strong, data driven foundational body of knowledge in healthcare cyber security, and the impacts cyber attacks may have on patient outcomes. We will discuss novel patient cyber safety risks inherent in digitized clinical workflows, as well as possible sector wide defensive mitigation strategies resulting in safer and more resilient patient care.
