Cybersecurity for EMS: Today and the Future - 2:15-3:15 Room 007C/D

If you’re attending SAFE-D, this is one session you’ll want on your schedule.

Cyber incidents are no longer an IT problem hiding in the back office. For EMS agencies, they’re an operational threat—one that can disrupt response, expose districts to liability, and put patient trust at risk.

That’s exactly what this presentation is about.

What this session covers

In Cybersecurity for EMS: Today and the Future, we’ll reframe cybersecurity in terms EMS leaders, commissioners, and chiefs care about:

Patient care continuity — what actually breaks when systems go down
HIPAA accountability — who is responsible vs. who is accountable
Operational and financial exposure — downtime, incident response, and public scrutiny
Emerging risks — mobile devices, connected ambulances, AI, and what’s coming next

Just practical, defensible guidance grounded in real EMS operations.

Who should attend

This session is designed for:

ESD Commissioners and board members
EMS chiefs and executive leadership
Operations, compliance, and technology decision-makers
Anyone responsible for governance, risk, or continuity of care

If you’ve ever thought “We haven’t had a cyber incident… yet”, this talk is for you.

Why this matters now

EMS agencies are increasingly digital—and increasingly exposed. Cybersecurity decisions (or the lack of them) now affect:

Response times
Medical device availability
HIPAA enforcement actions
Public trust after an incident

This session helps you connect those dots—and understand what “good” looks like for EMS today and in the years ahead.

Let’s continue the conversation
