Grow with confidence, without becoming the next breach headline
Healthcare has the most expensive data breaches of any industry, averaging $6.64 million each, and the FBI ranks it the most-targeted critical infrastructure sector for cyberattacks. Yet healthcare companies are the least focused on cybersecurity investment. Your business runs on patient trust and sensitive data, and one serious incident can cost you revenue, partners, and reputation. We bring decades of experience building and assessing security programs that protect against threats, manage risk, and let you grow with confidence.
Services include:
Information Security Strategy
Roadmap and Budget Planning
Enterprise Risk Management
Vendor Risk Management
Policies and Procedures
Incident Response Planning
Post-incident Remediation
M&A Due Diligence
Security Awareness and Workforce Training

Use AI to streamline operations, without putting patients at risk
More than 4 in 5 physicians now use AI in their work. But much of it happens without approval: in a recent survey, more than half of front-line health system staff had used public AI tools for work, and the consequences are already showing. At the end of 2026, three healthcare organizations had to tell patients their records were put into unapproved AI tools. AI can lower costs, support clinical decisions, and streamline operations, but only with the right tools, rules, and oversight. We help you adopt it safely, compliantly, and with people still in charge of the decisions that matter.

Navigate the complex web of federal, state, and regulatory compliance requirements
Healthcare leaders rank regulatory compliance as their number one business risk. HIPAA fines can reach over $2 million a year for a single violation, and states have their own privacy and breach notification laws that can result in additional fines. Rules change and multiply as you add locations, partners, and patients. We bring decades of experience keeping healthcare organizations compliant, so you can focus on running and growing operations.

Why Hatbox?
We understand healthcare companies: how care is delivered, how clinical teams work, how quality is measured, and the pressures of running both value-based and fee-for-service operations. Most technology and security firms know the tools but not the business of healthcare. We bring both, and we connect every security, compliance, and technology decision back to how you operate.
That understanding comes from decades of leading security, compliance, and technology inside fast-growing, highly regulated companies, helping them scale to billion-dollar valuations while protecting them against cyber threats and regulatory risk. The right leadership helps healthcare businesses grow safely and protect the patients they serve.
Based out of Nashville, TN, Hatbox was founded by Craig Barber, two-time recipient of the CISOs Connect™ Top 100 Award (2024, 2026) and recognized as one of Nashville's "Top CISOs to Watch" by CISO Whisperer (2025). Craig relocated from the United Kingdom to the United States in 2022 through the EB-1A Extraordinary Ability program, in recognition of his significant contributions to the global cybersecurity field.
