What do you know about cybersecurity in healthcare?
You’ve probably heard news reports about the surge in cybersecurity incidents across the healthcare industry throughout 2020. The reality is that developing and maintaining a robust cybersecurity and risk management program is a challenge for any organization. For healthcare companies in particular, it’s difficult to stay up to date with a rapidly evolving cybersecurity compliance landscape. Our guest on the pod today saw these problems firsthand when he was CISO at the health IT company Voxiva and he decided to do something about it.
Grant Elliott is CEO and Founder of Ostendio. Grant tells the story of how he realized there was a market opportunity in healthcare security and compliance, and how he made the leap from the steady ride of the corporate C-suite to the extremely uncertain world of tech entrepreneurship. Grant gives his advice for founders (“Just don’t do it”) and shares his secret for successfully scaling a technology company (TLDR: It’s the title to this episode.) Grant teaches courses on business and entrepreneurship at the Pratt Institute, he is the Founder and Former President of the Healthcare Cloud Coalition, and in his spare time he mentors and advises entrepreneurs.
You can check out all the healthcare compliance and risk management tools Grant and his team are building at Ostendio.com and you can follow them on Twitter @Ostendio.
