The intersection of cybersecurity and healthcare is more critical than ever, as technology continues to shape the way patient care is delivered. At HIMSS 2025 in Las Vegas, we sat down with Lee Kim, Senior Principal of Cybersecurity and Privacy at HIMSS, to discuss the pressing security challenges facing healthcare organizations, the role of artificial intelligence, and the balance between innovation and risk.AI in Healthcare: Promise and PerilArtificial intelligence is rapidly being adopted across the healthcare sector, yet many organizations still lack structured governance around its use. Kim highlights the “wild west” nature of AI adoption, where policies are either non-existent or underdeveloped, creating risks related to privacy, data security, and patient outcomes. While AI-powered diagnostic tools, like those used in radiology, have the potential to improve patient care by identifying critical conditions early, blind trust in AI-generated results presents serious risks. Without proper oversight, reliance on AI could lead to incorrect medical decisions, putting patient safety in jeopardy.Cybersecurity Gaps in Healthcare OrganizationsOne of the biggest concerns in healthcare cybersecurity is the over-reliance on security tools without a clear strategy. Many organizations invest in the latest technology but neglect foundational security practices, such as governance, policy development, and staff training. Kim points out that less than half of cybersecurity budgets are allocated to governance, leading to disorganized security programs.Another persistent challenge is the human factor. Social engineering and phishing attacks remain the top attack vectors, exploiting the inherent culture of healthcare professionals who are trained to help and trust others. Organizations must focus on proactive security measures, such as regular training and simulated attacks, to reduce human error and strengthen defenses.The Financial and Operational RealityBudget constraints continue to be a challenge, particularly for smaller hospitals and community healthcare providers. While larger organizations may have more resources, cybersecurity spending often focuses on acquiring new tools rather than optimizing existing defenses. Kim stresses the importance of a balanced approach—investing in both technology and governance to ensure long-term resilience.Another concern is the increasing dependence on third-party services and cloud-based AI tools. If these services become too expensive or go offline, healthcare organizations may face operational disruptions. The lack of contingency planning, such as backup vendors or alternative systems, leaves many institutions vulnerable to supply chain risks.Building a More Resilient Healthcare Security ModelAs technology continues to drive innovation in healthcare, organizations must adopt a proactive cybersecurity stance. Business impact analyses, vendor risk assessments, and tabletop exercises should be standard practice to prepare for disruptions. Kim also raises the idea of cyber mutual aid—a model similar to emergency medical mutual aid, where healthcare organizations collaborate to support each other in times of crisis.HIMSS 2025 provides a forum for these critical conversations, bringing together global healthcare leaders to share insights, challenges, and solutions. For those interested in diving deeper, the HIMSS Cybersecurity Survey is available online, offering a comprehensive look at the current state of healthcare security.To hear the full discussion on these topics and more, listen to the episode featuring Lee Kim, Sean Martin, and Marco Ciappelli from HIMSS 2025 On Location.Guest: Lee Kim, Senior Principal of Cybersecurity and Privacy at HIMSS | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leekim/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber] | On ITSPmagazine:  https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli____________________________This Episode's SponsorsHITRUST: https://itspm.ag/itsphitweb____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from HIMSS 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/himss-2025-health-technology-and-cybersecurity-event-coverage-las-vegasHIMSS 2024 Cybersecurity Report: https://www.himss.org/resources/himss-healthcare-cybersecurity-survey/____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

This segued into a discussion about the philosophical and practical implications of transhumanism, such as brain-computer interfaces like Neuralink and their potential to reshape human capabilities and interactions.Challenges of Medical Technology Integration: The hype surrounding medical technology advancements, particularly AI and machine learning, was critically examined. Ahuja highlighted concerns over inflated claims, such as AI outperforming human doctors, and stressed the need for grounded, evidence-based integration of these tools into healthcare.Philosophy of Mind and Consciousness: A recurring theme was the nature of consciousness and its central role in both neurology and AI research. The unresolved "hard problem of consciousness" raises ethical and philosophical questions about the implications of mimicking or enhancing human cognition through technology.Trade-offs in Technological Progress: Ahuja emphasized that no technological advancement is without trade-offs. While tools like CRISPR and mRNA therapies hold transformative potential, they come with risks like unintended consequences, such as horizontal gene transfer, and the ethical dilemmas of their application.Human Element in Medicine: The conversation underscored the importance of human connection in medical practice, particularly in neurology, where patients often face chronic and emotionally taxing conditions. Ahuja's reflections on the pitfalls of bureaucracy, private equity in healthcare, and the overemphasis on defensive medicine highlighted the critical need to prioritize patient-centered care in an increasingly technological and administrative landscape.

LaNua Medical, an Irish medtech device startup, today announced it has raised $6.3 million in seed funding. The company is developing a groundbreaking technology that makes it easy, safe, and cheaper for doctors to treat internal bleeding, vascular malformations and many benign and malignant tumours. The funding round was co-led by Elkstone and Atlantic Bridge, with participation from Enterprise Ireland and Furthr VC. The funding will be used to accelerate product development and market access. A spin-out from University College Dublin (UCD), La Nua was founded in 2024 by interventional radiologist Dr Cormac Farrelly, Tom Fitzmaurice (ex-Medtronic VP) and UCD biomedical engineers Dr Eoin O'Cearbhaill and Dr Sajjad Amiri. The new Ecore device aims to help improve patient outcomes, lower hospital costs, minimize duration of hospital stays, and reduce stress and procedure times for practitioners. LaNua's pioneering Ecore device will help to modernise embolisation procedures - a technique used by surgeons and radiologists to control the flow of blood in certain areas of the body. Designed to enhance the safe and targeted delivery of tools used to block blood flow, the umbrella-shaped device will enter blood vessels deep within the body and form an occlusive barrier. In a major step for embolisation procedures, the Ecore device allows doctors to restrict blood flow in a targeted segment of veins or arteries while still allowing ancillary medical tools (guidewires and catheters) to pass through it. The innovative device design will safely complement liquid and microparticle embolization including localised intravascular radiation procedures performed by Interventional Radiologists worldwide. Exposure to X-ray radiation is also reduced for both patient and practitioner, and lowers the risk of human errors like inadvertently blocking blood flow to healthy adjacent organs. Speaking on the announcement CEO and Co-founder of LaNua Medical Tom Fitzmaurice said "We are delighted to complete this $6.3M seed round bringing on board sophisticated and experienced Medical Technology investors in Ireland and the United States. It will enable our team to hire additional skilled resources, develop a range of devices to meet the growing demands of embolisation in the Interventional Radiology medical community and gain entry into our first market in the United States." Currently, the global embolisation market is worth $2.2bn and is expected to reach $3.88bn in 2031, driven by increased incidences of vascular diseases, cancer and growing demand for minimally invasive surgeries. Consultant Interventional Radiologist, CMO and Co-founder Dr Cormac Farrelly said "Having performed thousands of embolisation procedures, I strongly believe this next-generation embolisation device is a transformative platform technology. It will not just make existing procedures safer and more effective, but will also enable new clinical applications for minimally invasive embolisation procedures worldwide." The device can be used in oncology, and in the treatment of benign tumours, malformations and haemorrhage. LaNua is initially targeting treatments used to enable liver cancer patients to safely receive potentially curative surgery. For example, a combination of embolisation and surgery has increased 5-year survival rates by 45% for colorectal cancer, which spreads to the liver in 60% of patients. By improving the efficacy and safety of targeted therapeutic delivery in embolisation, LaNua's Ecore device can potentially push survival rates above 80%. "LaNua Medical exemplifies Ireland's continued excellence and innovation in the MedTech sector," said Niall McEvoy, Head of Venture at Elkstone. "As an early investor in pioneering companies like LetsGetChecked, Luminate Medical and Croi Valve, we at Elkstone have seen firsthand how Irish Health Tech and MedTech start-ups can revolutionise patient care on a global scale. LaNua, led by an experienced founder team, has the po...

How is technology shaping the future of neurosurgery? In this episode, Bill sits down with Dr. Lawton, President and CEO of Barrow Neurological Institute, Robert F. Spetzler Endowed Chair for Neurosciences, and Chair of the Department of Neurosurgery. Dr. Lawton discusses the ways he is bringing new technologies and innovation to neurosurgery, as well as how it could improve patients outcomes and broaden the field's scope of impact.---------Key Quotes:“If we're able to have these huge datasets where we can take all the brain tumor patients and then go back 10 years before they were ever diagnosed and see what was abnormal then, it might open up these ways to predict or diagnose or even prevent some of these diseases before they get started.” “It's a technological revolution that has all of a sudden allowed us to envision things in neurosurgery that incorporate this tech in ways that we never had 20 years ago… I think probably the best example of that is the brain computer interface. There's the perfect example  of how technology and engineering brought into neurosurgery is going to change the world.”“Instead of taking just six variables, we can take a hundred variables and we can feed them into the black box of AI, and we can look at way more than just those six. And maybe our decision making will be better. Maybe our predictive powers will be different.”--------Timestamps: (02:26) Integrating technology in neurosurgery(06:37) Brain-Computer Interfaces (09:56) Expanding neurosurgical training(19:09) AI in neurosurgery: Diagnostics and beyond(29:16) Mysteries of the Mind and understanding the mind(34:35) Future of neurosurgery in emotional and cognitive interventions--------Sponsor:Edge solutions are unlocking data-driven insights for leading organizations.

This week on Equity, the podcast crew discusses several weird things and at least one cool thing.Kirsten Korosec, Devin Coldewey, and Rebecca Bellan first talked about the least weird thing of the week, how nice it is that Cohere co-founder Nick Frosst has a band that people really like.Then we get weird. First the good weird: a helmet that squeezes your head, but for a really good reason. It prevents hair loss from chemotherapy. Devin covered Luminate's latest fundraise and news, and everyone was pleased that money was going to a startup that may really be helping people feel better about themselves during a difficult time. The company is hoping to improve at-home care as well.Next, Kirsten explained the weird phenomenon of Flink, the “quick commerce” startup that just recently was rumored to be on the block for about $106 million, instead raising $115 million. Quite a turnaround! But as the team discusses, it may be that investors see the possibility that the “tumultuous time” for this sector is ending and Flink may have a good grip on the German market. Still…Then the weirdness begins in earnest. Rebecca is at the “Principled Business Summit,” aimed at “reclaiming capitalism” from, apparently, itself. She is getting mixed messages from the crowd and the content, which seems to combine enthusiasm for doing the right thing with some fringe tendencies to do… other things.And weirdest of all, autonomous trucking startup TuSimple's pivot to… AI-generated animation and video games. What?! Though there is some overlap between simulation and animation/gaming, it's a wild and unexpected change for the company, and a lot of shareholders are not going for it. Apparently the new division is working on another adaptation of “The Three-Body Problem,” so that's good… but what about the $450 million they were going to spend on trucks? That conflict is playing out before our eyes. Press play, and catch up!Equity is TechCrunch's flagship podcast, produced by Theresa Loconsolo, and posts every Wednesday and Friday. Subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Spotify and all the casts.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, or ECMO, can be a lifesaving technology for patients whose organs have failed. It works, essentially, by performing the functions that a healthy person's lungs and heart would normally do. While using the machine, many recipients of ECMO treatment can walk, talk, even ride a stationary bike, but they can't leave the hospital with the machine, nor can they survive without it. In a recent article in The New Yorker, emergency physician and writer Clayton Dalton described these patients as “caught on a bridge to nowhere.” Marketplace's Lily Jamali spoke to Dalton about the complicated ethics of this technology.
