As a lover of all things tech, I've got a lot of passion about cybersecurity. As more and more digital technologies make their way into our world and our profession, we are acquiring more and more digital patient info. This digital data makes us more agile in treatment as well as more precise... and it's only getting better. For the first time in dental history we now have a totally digital workflow by pairing intraoral scanners with onsite mills and 3D printers.
Of course, all of that digital patient data means keeping it secure from prying eyes and cyber criminals. It behooves every office to be aware of threats and how to manage your risk profile to keep the locks as secure as possible. I met Tasha Dickinson a few years ago and I came away impressed. She's sharp and knowledgeable about cybersecurity. As CEO of Siligent, she runs a company dedicated to helping keep patient data as secure as it can be. I was excited to recently learn that Tasha will be in Chicago speaking, as well as exhibiting, at the upcoming Chicago MidWinter Meeting. Read on for all of the details...
Tasha Dickinson, founder, CEO and Chief Technology Officer of Siligent, a leading and trusted provider of advanced cybersecurity and IT solutions for the dental industry will be teaching a 3.0 CE course on cybersecurity during the upcoming Chicago Midwinter Meeting.
Scheduled for Thursday, February 20 from 2:30 PM – 4 PM, The specific topic of the course is “Risk Assessments: What Dentists Need to Know to Protect Their Practices.” According to Tasha, “In recent years, the cybersecurity threats to dental offices have become more prevalent and impactful, damaging practices. My goal is to explain what the actual risks are for a dental practice. Help them understand what essential cybersecurity innovations need to be put into place and how to get started. We want to ensure that practices are protected from criminals who may install ransomware or sell their patient data on the black market putting their business and their patients at risk.”
After attending this course, practice owners will be able to do the following:
• Identify cybersecurity risks
• Make smart technology decisions
• Protect their business, their families and their patients
“Cybersecurity will be of critical importance to dental practices throughout 2025 so attending this course early in the year could not be more advantageous, added Dickinson.”
Siligent Technology will also be exhibiting at booth #904 and Tasha will be on hand to answer any questions regarding cybersecurity and dental IT throughout the meeting.
