Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyTopic: As we approach spring, we are entering into a time that many different religions engage in fasting and spiritual renewal. Actually, Springtime is a perfect time for renewal as we move from the dormancy of winter into the fresh green of spring. A "spring cleaning" to let go of old, restrictive habits and embrace new growth. Today we'll be talking about how we can make this time one of self-renewal.You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org. Hosted on Acast.

Hospital Shutdown, Ransomware Surge, Fortinet Failures A hospital doesn't cancel chemotherapy appointments because of a “technical issue.” They cancel them because they've lost operational control. This week, the University of Mississippi Medical Center shut down its entire network after a ransomware attack disrupted systems — including Epic. Clinics closed. Elective procedures paused. Outpatient services halted. Emergency operations activated. Leadership described the shutdown as precautionary. But here's the real question executives should be asking: Why was a full network shutdown necessary? If segmentation is validated… If identity governance is enforced… If lateral movement detection is operationalized… Why does the only safe option become “turn it all off”? In this episode of Security Squawk, we break down what this incident signals about containment confidence, governance maturity, and operational resilience — not just in healthcare, but across every industry that depends on uptime. And we zoom out. Because UMMC isn't happening in isolation. According to TechRadar, ransomware groups have reached an all-time high in 2025. The victim growth rate has doubled. Qilin and other affiliate-driven operators are scaling aggressively. This isn't random chaos. It's industrialization. More fragmentation. More specialization. More execution discipline on the criminal side. Healthcare, public sector, and critical infrastructure are being economically targeted because downtime equals leverage. When systems go dark, negotiation pressure spikes. Then we connect it to something many leaders are still underestimating: Fortinet exploitation patterns. Edge vulnerabilities. VPN credential harvesting. Reinfection cycles months after patches were released. The vulnerability itself isn't the story. The response maturity is. Attackers are repeatedly probing whether organizations: – Patch fast enough – Rotate exposed credentials – Reset trust boundaries after compromise – Validate segmentation integrity – Rebuild identity confidence When those governance steps are skipped, attackers come back. That's not a tooling failure. That's a leadership failure. This episode translates three headlines into one hard truth: Ransomware is no longer just a malware problem. It's a containment confidence problem. For CEOs: If you cannot isolate an intrusion without shutting down revenue operations, your resilience model is fragile. For IT Directors: Active Directory recovery is not a restore-from-backup event. It's a trust re-establishment event. For MSPs: Client environments are operating in a denser criminal ecosystem. Tool stacking without maturity validation will not scale. For Risk Leaders: Financial exposure is no longer limited to ransom. Revenue interruption, regulatory scrutiny, and reputational damage compound quickly — especially in healthcare. We also discuss: • Why attacker communication often signals a second phase • Why affiliate ransomware models are accelerating • Why segmentation validation will become a board-level metric • Why detection speed does not equal governance strength Security Squawk exists to translate cybersecurity chaos into business reality — without vendor spin and without hype. If you value that kind of analysis and want to support independent, executive-focused cybersecurity conversations, you can back the show at: buymeacoffee.com/securitysquawk Your support helps us keep this live, timely, and unfiltered. Because criminals are already running maturity audits. And they invoice in operational shutdown. The question is simple: If it happened to you tomorrow, could you contain it — or would you turn the lights off?

Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyTopic: In desperation to protect our loved ones who have illnesses or disorders, it is easy to become emotional and overzealous. We may want to quickly react to reported causations and/or treatments that are touted. Of course, if we could prevent a devastating illness or a developmental disorder in our loved one, we would go for it, right. But sometimes jumping to a treatment or stopping a treatment may not be helpful and could even be dangerous. Today we'll be talking about why understanding “correlation without causation” is so important as we make medical decisions.You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.

Kristi Henderson invented telehealth at the University of Mississippi Medical Center decades before anyone thought healthcare needed it. While her colleagues were optimizing traditional clinic workflows, Kristi was asking a different question: What if geography didn't dictate healthcare access? By the time the pandemic forced everyone else to figure out virtual care overnight, she'd already spent two decades perfecting it. What makes her approach distinctive isn't just her track record at Amazon, Ascension, and Optum. It's that she worked every level of the healthcare system for 24 years before reaching the C-suite. She understands frontline friction because she lived it. At Amazon, Kristi discovered a framework that changed everything: one-way doors versus two-way doors. Some decisions are irreversible and demand precision. Others are experiments where failure means pivoting fast. That distinction became her playbook for tackling problems most leaders won't touch. But her most counterintuitive move? When she became CEO of Confluent Health, her first hire wasn't a CFO or COO. It was a leader for internal communications. Because brilliant transformation plans fail without deliberate stakeholder engagement. Change happens at the speed of trust. Now Kristi is betting on something that sounds almost naively optimistic: that AI will finally give clinicians their time back by eliminating friction, not replacing human connection. She uses AI daily as her "sidekick" and is building an organization where technology supercharges what only humans can do. Key Takeaways: Why Kristi kept raising her hand for jobs no one else wanted and how taking the hardest assignments became her competitive advantage The Amazon framework that changed everything: one-way doors versus two-way doors, and how to know which type of decision you're making What "change happens at the speed of trust" actually means in practice when you're transforming organizations Kristi's "reverse innovation" approach: why bottoms-up transformation consistently outperforms top-down mandates The counterintuitive first hire Kristi made as CEO, and why communication infrastructure matters more than most leaders realize How to handle naysayers strategically instead of avoiding them or trying to convince them Why Kristi believes the workforce crisis isn't permanent if leaders focus on the right problem The specific ways Kristi uses AI daily as a CEO, and why she sees it as the key to bringing joy back to clinical practice About the Guest Kristi Henderson, DNP, is CEO of Confluent Health, a family of physical therapy and occupational therapy companies. She spent the first 24 years of her career as a practicing nurse practitioner before pioneering telehealth at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, long before the pandemic made it mainstream. Kristi has since led digital transformation at Ascension Health, built clinical operations for Amazon Care, and served as CEO of Optum Everycare. She's Board Chair of the American Telemedicine Association and affiliate faculty at Dell Medical School and the University of Washington School of Nursing. Her career has been defined by raising her hand for challenges others declined and building tech-enabled care models that improve outcomes while reducing clinician burden.

Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyGuest(s): Jenna Harris, Alzheimer's AssociationTopic: As people grow older, changes occur in all parts of our bodies, and that includes the brain. Those brain changes may cause us to notice that remembering information isn't as easy as it used to be and recalling names or numbers may not happen as quickly. Maybe these signs of mild forgetfulness are just aging, but when does it become more troublesome? Is it aging, a health issue, dementia or Alzheimer's?

That chance moment sparked a soul-filling discussion about population health, public health, and social determinants of health, and how all three directly shape our work as pediatric SLPs. As 2025 comes to a close and many of us are reflecting on our professional place in the world, this episode offers hope, perspective, and practical ways to think and act upstream. You will walk away inspired to become an “Upstreamist,” ready to lead gently and passionately for our field, our colleagues, and the children and families we serve in 2026.Show Notes:ASHA SDOH: https://www.asha.org/practice/social-determinants-of-health/?srsltid=AfmBOopPx1sLqvjVFTyhNQ3gM8f4tlJ3_e6otXZgc5w9S8gGNCKH5zWKHealthy People: https://odphp.health.gov/healthypeople

If we are honest, we've all felt them at one time or another. Those uncomfortable pangs of envy when a friend gets a promotion or the jealousy that you feel when a partner is spending a lot of time with someone else. But are these the same emotion?

On your way to work you get caught in a traffic jam and you miss an important appointment. Ok, now your mood isn't so great. You begin to feel irritable and that sunny mood just went cloudy.
