The HIMSS Healthcare Cybersecurity Community provides a monthly forum for thought-leaders (from government, the private sector, and academia) and healthcare constituents to discuss and learn about advancing the state of cybersecurity in our healthcare industry.

Learn from thought-leaders in the healthcare sector, exchange ideas with your peers, and take a proactive step to improve your healthcare organization’s security posture by joining the HIMSS Healthcare Cybersecurity Community today! This community is open to all HIMSS members.

If you would like to present before our HIMSS Healthcare Cybersecurity Community, please submit your topic and a brief description of your speaking proposal to Lee Kim. The proposals must be vendor-neutral, educational in nature and have a healthcare-specific context.

Volunteer on one of the privacy and security task forces or workgroups. Participation is open to all HIMSS members and provides excellent opportunities for professional development, networking and active engagement. View further information about these task forces and workgroups.
