In this role, he serves as a trusted advisor to the leadership of nation’s hospitals and health systems. John is a prominent national advocate on healthcare cyber policy and legislative issues – including providing testimony and briefings to Congress which assisted in the passage of PL 116-321, which provides regulatory relief for HIPAA covered victims of cyber attacks. In 2021, John’s prominent advocacy encouraged the government to raise the investigative priority level of ransomware attacks to equal that of terrorist attacks. John works closely with healthcare victims of cyber ransomware attacks during and post attack.
