I Need a Hacker Consult, Stat

Presented at THOTCON 0x9 (2018), May 5, 2018, 3 p.m. (25 minutes).

Doctors learn about Ebola and influenza in med school, but not about WannaCry or Petya. That's a problem. Clinicians- and more importantly, their patients- increasingly depend upon an incredibly complex network of connected medical devices and vulnerable hospital infrastructure. And while medicine has never been more promising, it's also never been more insecure. Healthcare needs help- and it needs it from you. Join Jeff "r3plicant" Tully and Christian "quaddi" Dameff, practicing physicians and white hats, as they give you a unique perspective into the challenges facing the champions of healthcare infosec, show why hackers are the missing piece of the patient care team and finally, take you behind the scenes of the first ever clinical simulations depicting patients with hacked medical devices. This talk is not for the faint of heart. Literally.
