HealthSec USA Summit Returns for a 4th Edition in Boston on June 9th – 10th, 2026!
As healthcare and life sciences companies are increasingly adopting new technologies and digitizing their operations, attack surface expands and cybersecurity risks grow for organizations of all sizes. Consequently, having a holistic cybersecurity strategy in place becomes paramount in an environment where business continuity means saving lives.
With this in mind, the HealthSec Summit will bring together some of the brightest minds in the industry, uniting cybersecurity and health IT leaders from HDOs, plans / payers, MDMs and life sciences across the US to network and share first-hand insights in an intimate setting.
In a world where cybersecurity means patient safety, the summit provides an invaluable hands-on learning opportunity that will equip you with actionable IT security knowledge to aid you in your journey towards cyber resilience.
