Session Two 7:30 ro 8:30 PM: When AI Meets Healthcare: Designing an AI-Ready Data Architecture, Guman Chanan
The success of AI in healthcare and government depends on more than selecting the right model. It depends on whether the underlying data is accurate, governed, secure, accessible, and connected across systems.
Medicaid programs operate across complex ecosystems involving beneficiaries, providers, caregivers, authorizations, services, electronic visit verification (EVV), claims, payments, and analytics platforms. These systems often have different data structures, identifiers, access requirements, and business rules. Turning this environment into an AI-ready ecosystem requires an architecture that addresses data quality, interoperability, identity, governance, privacy, security, and traceability from the beginning.
This session presents a practical framework for building an AI-ready data architecture for that can be implemented in any environment.
As a Cybersecurity Leader and Board member, Guman Chauhan, M.S., CISSP, CISM helps organizations build security programs that not only protect but also enable growth, trust, and innovation. “With two decades of experience leading large-scale security architecture, governance, and risk transformation initiatives, I’ve guided enterprises and government entities through complex digital evolutions to align security strategies with business outcomes. Holding CISSP, CISM, AWS, and other security vendor certifications, I bring a deep technical foundation paired with executive-level insight to bridge the gap between cybersecurity, compliance, and innovation. My passion lies in transforming security from a cost center into a strategic enabler of resilience through the responsible integration of AI and automation. As a Government Cyber Advisor, Mentor, and Speaker, I’m committed to advancing collaboration across the global security community to help emerging leaders grow and guide organizations toward stronger governance, ethical AI adoption, and measurable risk reduction. I have also authored a few journal and conference publications and contributed to advancements in AI-driven cloud security and data integrity.”
-Guman is also a highly respected board member and friend among the many leaders of ISC2 and ISACA.
