Ordr’s speaking sessions are:
“Optimizing Clinical Asset Management for Cybersecurity and Operational Efficiencies”
When: Saturday, June 17, 2023, from 8:00 – 9:00 am PDT
Who: Boyd Hutchins, Corporate Director, Equipment Management, Baptist Health and Ben Stock, Director of Healthcare Product Management, Ordr
What: When it comes to managing medical devices, efficiencies in clinical asset management translate to improvements in patient safety, cybersecurity, and hospital operations. This session will review ways to optimize clinical asset management and operationalize device insights to deliver value in: (1) automated device discovery and classification, to reduce manual efforts; (2) real-time device insights (make, model, system configuration, software levels, and location), for patching and operational efficiencies; (3) full-life cycle vulnerability management to prioritize and mitigate risks; and (4) device utilization insights to support procurement decisions.
“Mayo Clinic Best Practices: SBOM Alternatives to Streamline Vulnerability Management and Security”
When: Sunday, June 18, 2023, from 4:15 – 5:15 pm PDT
Who: Keith Whitby, IT Division Chair, HTM, Mayo Clinic and Pandian Gnanaprakasam, co-founder and Chief Product Officer, Ordr
What: The frequency of reported vulnerabilities that may affect medical device security has grown during the past few years, creating an increased urgency to patch vulnerabilities faster. But the challenge is tracking vulnerabilities across the many systems used within the care environment. A device’s software bill of materials (SBOM) can be used to analyze vulnerabilities and risks, but SBOMs have inherent challenges. In this session, presenters will share best practices for a broad vulnerability management strategy, along with SBOM alternatives currently being used at Mayo Clinic that can streamline vulnerability management.
The Ordr team will also be on-site at the 2023 AAMI eXchange in booth #929, ready to help attendees learn how to gain accurate, real-time visibility into their networks and ensure the security of their connected medical devices and equipment.
