Defending Healthcare Against AI Attacks, Impersonation, and Deepfakes
ORIGINALLY AIRED TUESDAY, MAY 12th, 2026
AI broke trust. Synthetic voices, bots, and deepfake impersonators are slipping past healthcare’s identity controls, putting PHI, compliance, and trust at risk. Three healthcare security experts share what’s actually working now.
Speakers from:
What you’ll take away
Patient access. Telehealth. Help desks. Provider workflows. Every voice and video touchpoint is now an attack surface. We walk through where attackers are getting through today, what real-time identity verification has to do differently, and where healthcare CISOs are putting their budget for the next 12 months.
Where AI is bypassing healthcare identity controls
KBA gets beaten over half the time, OTP about a quarter. We'll walk through the actual attack patterns hitting healthcare in 2026.

“Reality is threat actors change their tactics. We have to respond…and often we respond with traditional conventional controls. When the technology fundamentally changes, those controls aren’t effective, they don’t work…We have to adjust and change our controls capability.”
