The Helpdesk Under Attack: Defending Healthcare’s New Frontline
Healthcare’s attack surface has expanded—and cybercriminals are no longer just targeting systems. They’re targeting people.
Today’s threat actors are exploiting helpdesk workflows using social engineering, impersonation, and MFA fatigue techniques to bypass perimeter defenses. Once inside, they move laterally across networks, escalate privileges, and deploy ransomware—with frontline support teams often serving as the first point of compromise.
This session brings together experts from Ping Identity and Accenture to examine how healthcare helpdesks are being exploited—and how organizations can defend against this growing threat.
