Episode Description

The US is in a dire supply chain crisis. According to the Federal Reserve, many parts of the country have been hurt by supply chain issues. Gas prices are hitting record highs. Goods are sitting in harbors, waiting for trucks to send them to their destinations. Consumers are seeing empty shelves all over the country. Perhaps most frightening of all, pharmacies are reportedly running out of prescription medications. The FDA has listed 100+ medications as being on backorder. According to one report, pharmacies are having to come up with creative ways to help their patients. Frankly, it’s scary. And on top of all this, how is the current supply chain crisis impacting cybersecurity and our critical infrastructure? Is our national cybersecurity at risk? How is technology helping the problem from inventory management systems to new innovative solutions? Is there a viable solution or is this the new norm? This week join us as we discuss the supply chain crisis from a cyber perspective with special guests Chuck Brooks, globally recognized cyber thought leader and former Legislative Director of the Science & Technology Directorate at the Department of Homeland Security and Matthew Rosenquist, a globally recognized top cybersecurity expert, cybersecurity strategist, and Chief Information Security Officer at Eclipz. We’ll tackle these tough questions and offer real world solutions that will help us make it through the supply chain crisis unscathed and cyber secure.

My Connected Life

Thursday at 8 AM Pacific Time on VoiceAmerica Business Channel

We live in a fully connected world. We all use and share digital information in our daily activities, in our businesses, with our money, even for our health. I should know. My name is Tyler Cohen Wood. I’m a an award winning cybersecurity expert and former U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency Senior Intelligence Officer. My professional work helps keep your information secure and private. I know many technology secrets that keep our world safe. But I also have a secret that I share with 25 million other Americans. I suffer from a rare autoimmune disease that has no cure. My life has been disrupted over the past several years looking for answers to save myself, shuffling from doctor to doctor, specialist to specialist, trapped in an endless loop of siloed care that rarely gives answers to unexplained conditions. What I discovered on this tumultuous medical journey would change the course of my life, and in turn, give me the opportunity to bring my cybersecurity knowledge and my patient experience together. I’ve launched My Connected Life: Digital Health Disrupted, a talk show about the business of digital health. I’ll take you on a journey to better understand how to improve the patient experience, protect the privacy of our digital health information, and keep our cyber connected lives safe. Each week we’ll learn more about the latest digital trends to keep the cybersecurity of the entire healthcare ecosystem (and our sensitive medical data) within our control. The business of digital health is our business. I believe it’s time we learn to own it.
