In this episode of Exploited: The Cyber Truth, host Paul Ducklin is joined by RunSafe Security CEO Joe Saunders and Greg Garcia, Executive Director for Cybersecurity of the Health Sector Coordinating Council (HSCC) Cybersecurity Working Group, to examine how ransomware, third-party dependencies, and interconnected healthcare infrastructure are shaping cyber risk across the healthcare sector.

Drawing on experience spanning DHS, critical infrastructure protection, and healthcare cybersecurity coordination, Garcia explains how disruptions at a single vendor or service provider can cascade across hospitals, pharmacies, insurers, and patients nationwide.

Together, they explore:

Why healthcare cyber risk is shifting from isolated breaches to systemic disruption
How ransomware and third-party compromises create cascading operational impacts
Lessons from the Change Healthcare ransomware attack
The growing challenge of securing connected healthcare systems and medical devices
Why patching alone cannot keep pace with modern cyber threats
The role of collaboration and resilience in protecting critical healthcare infrastructure

From healthcare providers and medical device manufacturers to policymakers and critical infrastructure leaders, this episode explores what organizations must understand to prepare for the next generation of healthcare cyber threats.
