Inside the ER of Cybercrime:
Hunting Patient-Data Intruders with Derek Eiri
Securanoia sits down with Derek Erie (MrEerie), a digital forensic analyst specializing in healthcare incident response. Derek shares his unconventional path into cyber forensics and explains why hospitals are prime targets from the value of patient data to insider curiosity and third‑party risks.
He breaks down real-world investigative practice, the “pick‑a‑role” incident response process, and how human motives often reveal the most critical clues. The conversation explores AI’s role in modern forensics, practical field tools and habits, and the importance of communication, context, and collaboration in keeping healthcare secure.
