DESCRIPTION

In 2022, there were 11 reported healthcare data breaches of more than 1 million patient medical records and a further 14 data breaches of over 500,000 patient medical records. Most of those breaches were hacking incidents, many of which involved ransomware or attempted extortion through the dark web.

Millions of people use the dark web every day. It is an extension of the deep web, operating on encrypted internet connections. It makes online activity anonymous and can only be accessed with a dark web browser. The dark web isn’t just accessed by a number of people. 2 million users connect to the dark web every day.

There are ways in which you can protect yourself from the dark web, some of which include dark web monitoring, cybersecurity insurance, security awareness training, practice system engagement, backing up important systems and files, and Multi-Factor Authentication. Of course, like many things, there are pros and cons of the dark web and in this session, I intend to educate you just that and how to protect your practice from it.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

After this webinar, participants will know how to:

  1. Pros of Dark Web
  2. Cons of Dark Web
  3. How to protect your practice data from the Dark Web

PRESENTER BIO

Todd Gooden is the Founder and CEO of The Solutions Team (TST) located in Flowood, MS. His company is a national provider of managed IT services and support, serving professionals across 40 states in the healthcare, dental, and legal fields.

In 1996, at 24 years of age, Todd was the youngest person at the time to ever receive the Mississippi Business Journal’s ‘Top 40 Under 40’ distinction – awarded annually to rising business leaders throughout the state. More than two decades and three companies later, he continues to be recognized as an IT services innovator and leader. He was named a ‘Most Successful Entrepreneur of 2018’ by Beyond Exclamation magazine, and more recently was named one of the state’s ‘Top CEOs of 2020’ by the Mississippi Business Journal.

Through the years, The Solutions Team has emerged as the go-to provider for companies looking to outsource their entire IT department or simply deploy key portions of the ‘cloud’ or Cyber Security Solutions. TST’s innovative ‘performance-based’ billing model and stellar track record for service availability and responsiveness have helped clients minimize IT service interruptions and increase productivity, while managing their budgets and reducing costs more effectively.

Under Todd’s leadership, The Solutions Team was named to the prestigious Pioneer 250 of CRN magazine’s 2019 Managed Service Provider 500 list, recognizing North American solution providers with cutting-edge approaches to delivering managed IT services. Other recognitions include TST being named a ‘Best Place to Work’ for six consecutive years since 2017 by the Mississippi Business Journal.

Todd’s fellow colleagues would describe him as authentic, driven, hardworking, honest, fair, and innovative, just to name a few. In his spare time, he enjoys spending a day out on his boat, hitting the green at tee time, cheering on his favorite football team, connecting with nature during a camping trip, or even hanging out with his hunting buddies at deer camp. Todd has been married to his beautiful wife, Brandi for 23 years whom he shares four children: Dakota, Aubrey, Kaelon, and Eli.
