Boston Scientific’s Global Security and Resiliency Department takes the lead in COVID-19 response
The global medical device manufacturer has maintained operational continuity throughout the pandemic, using clear processes and procedures mixed with a healthy dose of care.
Boston Scientific’s 17,000 products treat about 30 million patients a year. The medical device and healthcare solutions manufacturer has approximately 38,000 employees and locations in 40 countries around the globe. The company and its leadership team take pride in caring for patients around the world, as well as in caring for their own employees.
Knowing this is a part of the company’s fabric, Jack Sullivan, Global Chief Security and Resiliency Officer at Boston Scientific, began reimagining the role of security within the organization when he came on board in 2017. A veteran of the military and the corporate security world — having previously held security and resiliency leadership roles at Dunkin’ Brands and Starbucks — Sullivan is a strong believer in the security function of an organization as business enablers and problem solvers.
