With our inaugural Paubox SECURE Conference less than two weeks away, now is an ideal time to convey the enthusiasm we have for its arrival. As we quickly approach 1,000 customers, we felt the timing was perfect to host our own user conference.
We believe market leaders in tech share certain traits.
In my opinion, they are:
- Behavior. The leader behaves like one. To us, that means hosting a User Conference. To date, no one in the HIPAA compliant email space has hosted a user conference. This also means community service because the leader always gives back.
- Brand.
- Happy customers. This involves a high NPS and customer logos on our site.
Paubox SECURE will be at the Cowell Theater on November 2nd (Thursday) from 1pm – 8pm. You can register here.
Registration & Welcome
Registration will begin at 1pm.
As you make your way to the Cowell Theater entrance, you will be greeted by Paubox staff. Our staff as well as directional signs will guide you to the registration area where you will receive a custom Paubox lanyard and badge.
Enjoy catered refreshments and admire a picturesque view of the Golden Gate Bridge until our first presentation in the conference begins.
Keynote Speech: Anatomy of a Ransomware Attack
At 1:40pm, I will kick off our conference with a presentation on the Anatomy of a Ransomware Attack.
Ransomware is a form of malicious software that holds your data hostage until you pay a ransom payment to release it. Cybercriminals commit extortion by holding important files against you, and sometimes act as a Shadow Broker if their demands are not met.
Over 4,000 ransomware attacks occur daily with the average ransom demanding over $1,000. This is especially alarming if you are a small business. Small businesses are more likely to be targeted because they are easier to infiltrate, and approximately 60% of small businesses that are breached will go out of business within the next 6 months.
Learn the best way to defend against a ransomware attack or what to do if you fall victim to one.
2nd Session: The Future of Machine Learning and AI in Healthcare Security (Panel)

3rd Session: Fireside chat on Surviving a HIPAA Audit
Around 3:20pm, we will have a short break to stretch our legs and enjoy more delicious catered refreshments.
At 3:50pm, we will return to the theater where Bluegrass Biggs and I will do a fireside chat on Surviving a HIPAA Audit.
With ransomware attacks rising 250% in 2017 and focusing specifically on the United States, the OCR is taking serious measures to ensure healthcare organizations are HIPAA compliant.
They first rolled out their Phase 2 HIPAA Audit Program by conducting desk audits in 2016. Now, on-site audits are being conducted as well. Covered Entities and Business Associates may be subjected to both of these audits, and if you fail, you must pay a costly HIPAA violation fee (with fines increasing 10% in 2017) amongst other irreversible damage to your reputation and business.
Do you know how to prepare to survive it?
Bluegrass Biggs, Founder and CEO, BiggsB Inc.
Bluegrass has extensive knowledge in the fields of regulatory compliance, project management, CSV and Life Sciences. He founded BiggsB Inc to provide project management and comprehensive regulatory compliance solutions for a wide variety of Life Sciences companies. He values creativity and is constantly seeking the best possible way to approach the challenges of regulatory compliance.

Yes, you read that right. I will give a eulogy for the device everyone in healthcare has a horror story about – the fax machine.

We look forward to seeing you there!
