Tips for creating a top password:

  • Don’t use the same password for your Ballad Health account that you use for your personal accounts.
  • Don’t share your password.
  • Change your password when prompted.
  • Use a password manager to securely store all your passwords instead of writing them down or saving them on your devices.

Our cybersecurity campaign

We must stay alert if we are going to protect our organization, our data, our patients and each other, and one of the best ways to stay prepared is through education.

This fall, Ballad Health launched “Don’t Take the Bait,” a coordinated cybersecurity campaign. In the coming weeks and months, this cybersecurity campaign will consist of Ballad Health News and Ballad Teams articles, videos, tips and quizzes. Be on the lookout for how you can learn more about cybersecurity risks and what you can do to support our efforts in data protection.
