Validate HIPAA Compliance

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) has had a major affect on the manner in which health care organizations approach the issue of electronic data security and it continues to serve as a primary driver of overall IT security strategy for many companies doing business in the industry today. As the mandate continues to mature – along with expectations of third-party auditors carrying out related compliance assessments – organizations must work diligently to ensure that they’re meeting all of the appropriate administrative, physical and technical controls required to assure the confidentiality, integrity and security of electronic protected health information (PHI).

Our products and services allow organizations to test, measure and benchmark the security of their IT assets to understand where they have exploitable vulnerabilities that can allow for potential data breach incidents – as well as verify and validate that many of the security controls mandated under HIPAA and other data protection regulations are in place and functioning properly.
