CynergisTek’s Resilience Partner Program helps southern medical system amp up cybersecurity defenses.

CynergisTek (NYSE American: CTEK), leading cybersecurity, privacy, compliance, and IT audit firm helping organizations in highly regulated industries navigate emerging security and privacy issues, recently announced it has signed a 6-figure, multi-year Resilience Partner Program (RPP) agreement to provide annual cybersecurity risk assessments, testing, and advisory services for a leading, nationally recognized, community-owned medical system. This alliance will allow the healthcare system to reduce its risk of a cyber-attack and help them achieve its cybersecurity goals.

“We look forward to serving this client with our Resilience Partner Program and we understand the need to provide healthcare organizations support to not only discover gaps, but to also figure out how to prioritize remediation and stick around for advisory support,” said Mac McMillan, CEO, and President at CynergisTek. “The threat environment has increased through the pandemic, with more cyber-attacks and criminal behavior being directed towards the healthcare industry just as the environment has become more vulnerable. The cost of these cyber events is rising sharply with cyber insurance premiums and compliance requirements increasing. To meet these challenges CynergisTek continues to partner with our clients, roll out services, and evolve our existing services resulting in 2021 being our strongest annual bookings year in the last three,” he says.

CynergisTek’s Resilience Partner Program is designed to support the needs of its healthcare clients to better position them to protect against cyber threats. This program offers annual risk assessments, medical device security, vendor security management, technical testing, control validation, advisory support, and remediation guidance that is aimed to help healthcare organizations prioritize risk, maintain a constant eye on risks associated with the expanding threat landscape, and ensure they have a strong and effective approach to risk that responds every day.
