Browser-First Security Rethink Health System CISOs Need | Google Friday with Bill Reid

Episode Description

July 10, 2026: Bill Reid, Healthcare and Life Sciences Lead in the Office of the CISO at Google, has spent his career working with health system security leaders, and he keeps running into the same blind spot: healthcare is underestimating the browser as an attack surface. Drex DeFord sits down with Bill to explore why the shift from thick client infrastructure to a secure, browser-first endpoint model is no longer theoretical. It is what resilient health systems are building. From managing transient clinical staff to simplifying a fractured endpoint environment, Bill makes the case for why the browser is the future of healthcare endpoint security.
