SUMMARY:DFWHC and NTEKNO webinar "Securing AI in Healthcare"
DESCRIPTION:The DFW Hospital Council (DFWHC) and NTEKNO\, Inc. will co-host the complimentary webinar “Securing AI in Healthcare: Proving the Boundaries that Protect Clinical Workflows” on Thursday\, November 12 from 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.\, CT.\n\nSpeakers will include Serling Davis\, Founder and Chief Learning Architect at NTEKNO\, Inc.; and Stephen Love\, President/CEO of DFWHC.\n\nWhat is the AI-enabled system permitted to consume\, and what is it permitted to do? That distinction matters because an AI workload does not operate in isolation. In healthcare\, where protected health information and other regulated data may be involved\, security depends on whether the boundaries surrounding the AI system actually hold. Join us for this webinar as a national IT expert will discuss content security and authorization security when it comes to AI.\n\nYou can register here.\n\nFor information\, please contact Chris Wilson at chrisw@dfwhc.org.
