As cybersecurity threats continue to evolve, the healthcare industry faces unique challenges in safeguarding sensitive patient data. In this discussion, Julian Mihai, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Penn Medicine, shares key insights into implementing Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) to enhance cybersecurity in healthcare settings. 

Discussion points will include:

• The importance of adopting a holistic approach, considering not only technological aspects but also organizational culture and user awareness.
• The necessity of continuous authentication and authorization, ensuring that access to sensitive healthcare data is granted based on contextual information such as user behavior, device status, and location.
