In an April 19 article, [Ransomware ‘bull’s eye’ grows, clouding telehealth’s rise in long-term care](https://www.mcknights.com/news/ransomware-bulls-eye-grows-clouding-telehealths-rise-in-long-term-care/), McKnight's Long-Care News recapped suggestions from Prime Care Tech's Mark Owens.

- Providers pursue a multipronged approach to data protection, with a "modern and managed firewall" with:
