Show Notes

Drex tackles an urgent emerging threat in healthcare cybersecurity: the explosion of AI-generated synthetic media. With Meta's new Vibes video generator and OpenAI's Sora creating hyper-realistic video content from simple text prompts, healthcare organizations face unprecedented challenges in distinguishing real from fake content.

While watermarks and AI labels exist on these generated videos, they're often small, poorly placed, and easily cropped out by malicious actors. This isn't about banning technology—it's about understanding what's coming and getting ahead of it through synthetic media policies, verification protocols, brand protection strategies, and especially employee training to help teams identify and respond to AI-generated content.

The message is clear: if healthcare organizations don't start preparing now, they'll spend valuable time chasing what's real versus fake—a game bad actors are already playing to win.

Remember, Stay a Little Paranoid
