CHIME LIVE Webinar Digital Maturity in Health Systems – The DigiM Framework and How to Use it with Sara Vaezy and Paddy Padmanabhan Learn Objectives: - Understanding digital maturity in health systems - Applying an objective, structured assessment tool such as DigiM to evaluate digital maturity - Developing a roadmap for accelerating technology-led transformation Health systems have been on a digital transformation journey for the past few years. However, there is no structured framework to assess the maturity of health systems, specifically from a technology enablement standpoint. Damo Consulting’s DigiM framework addresses this gap with an online assessment tool that helps healthcare leaders benchmark themselves against their peers. The framework also assesses the relative maturity of the digital transformation vision against the execution of the strategy. Using recently concluded research and data points from self-assessments by several health systems, this session will provide a roadmap for digital transformation leaders looking to take an objective view of their progress and prioritize their investments to meet their enterprise goals.

Rea & Associates

Present-day in our galaxy, right here … The US Department of Defense (DoD) recently developed and established the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) as the new standard for the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). More plainly, it’s a certification process that provides assurance to the DoD that a required entity is equipped to protect unclassified information, including any data that transfers between its vendors and partners. That’s a simplified definition of what a CMMC and CMMC compliance is and it already sounds complicated. It doesn’t have to be, though. Etactics and Rea & Associates have joined forces to break down every facet of this new certification into a comprehensive webinar series entitled Security Wars. The first webinar in our Security Wars series serves as a necessary introduction to CMMC. Join Matt Moneypenny, senior marketing and sales analyst at Etactics, and Ty Whittenburg, senior information assurance manager at Rea & Associates, as they unpack the DoD’s newest standard by starting with its three maturity levels and their implications on data protection. #SecurityWarsSeries #CMMC #Cybersecurity Learn more about Rea & Associates at https://www.reacpa.com Discover how Etactics can help your business at https://etactics.com/
