CynergisTek a leading cybersecurity, privacy, compliance, and IT audit firm, announced that it has signed a 6-figure, multi-year Resilience Partner Program (RPP) agreement. This program aims to provide annual cybersecurity risk assessments, testing, and advisory services. The program will benefit a leading, nationally recognized, community-owned medical system. The program will allow the healthcare system to reduce cybersecurity risks and function smoothly.

“We look forward to serving this client with our Resilience Partner Program and we understand the need to provide healthcare organizations support to not only discover gaps, but also figure out how to prioritize remediation and stick around for advisory support.

The cost of these cyber events is rising sharply with cyber insurance premiums and compliance requirements increasing. To meet these challenges, CynergisTek continues to partner with our clients, roll out services, and evolve our existing services, resulting in 2021 being our strongest annual bookings year in the last three.”

Mac McMillan, CEO and President at CynergisTek

  • Annual risk assessments
  • Medical device security
  • Vendor security management
  • Technical testing
