The Weekly Breach Breakdown Podcast by ITRC – Don't Shoot the Messenger - S2E7

In episode 4 of Transformational Healthcare Leadership, Dr Mark O’Brien talks to Annie Flamsteed, the Australian Founder and Executive Chair of iNSPiRETEK.

‘How can we use technology to better support or accelerate access to care to prevent burnout rather than dealing with it once it is already upon us.’

Annie started her career as an elite competitive gymnast but chose to exit the sport in her late teens due, in part, to the incredible pressure placed on high-performance athletes. Her lived experience of the mental health challenges that she and many of her peers face makes her passionate about preventative healthcare; it inspired her to ‘hack the system’ so that data analytics could be used to predict when, or if, someone was potentially going to struggle with mental illness in order to accelerate their access to clinical healthcare.

Personal data collection in intrinsic to iNSPiRETEK’s services and Mark talks to Annie about the challenges around security and confidentiality with sensitive data particularly as much of their work revolves around young athletes. She says for her organisation it is really important that they only do business with ethical partners.

And as this is a healthcare leadership podcast Annie and Mark had a fascinating discussion about the personal and professional drivers that have shaped her leadership journey so far. Sheer grit and determination and a passionate commitment to the cause have absolutely been key; but also key to spring boarding iNSPiRETEK forward has been the ‘humility to ask for help’ and when it came to raising capital she looked for ‘smart capital’ and found people who provide help along with funding.

Data theft set new records in 2020. The major causes are not failures of equipment, software, or services. In an estimated 85% of cybercrime, the cause is us. We make careless mistakes as though we were inviting villains into our homes. We let thieves into our IT systems by accident. We get phished.

You get a message on your computer. It may seem to be from a friend, a trusted source, a reliable company, even your boss. It might seek an urgent response about something. How do you avoid dealing with the emailed message without letting a villain into your computer, and so into your personal or business’ IT systems? How do you prevent making a mistake that gives a cybercriminal the chance to freeze and hold your personal or your company’s IT system for ransom or to hack personal and proprietary information?

Here are seven top tips to avoid being the reason you or your business is the victim of data theft. Check emailed messages for seven red flags before acting:
1. Bad spelling
2. Bad grammar
3. Nonsense in the subject line
4. Incorrect domain name in images and links (hover over a link without clicking to reveal this)
5. Pressure tactics to scare you into acting fast
6. Unexpected message
7. Unexpected attachments or links in the message
