HIPAA Security Requirements Made Simple
Protecting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of patient information is no longer just a best practice for healthcare organizations, but a legal requirement. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) mandates that all healthcare organizations effectively meet Administrative, Technical and Physical safeguards to protect the privacy of patient information, and maintain data integrity for employees, customers and shareholders.Internet Security Systems, Inc. (ISS) has demonstrated proven success helping organizations achieve HIPAA compliance, with industry-leading Professional Services, world-class protection technology, comprehensive managed protection services and up-to-the-minute security intelligence on the latest threats.
The ISS Approach to HIPAA Compliance
To help organizations achieve compliance, ISS employs a five-step process that covers the complete security management lifecycle, including phases for Assessment, Design, Deployment, Management and Education (ADDME). This ADDME process identifies and analyzes gaps between current state and HIPAA requirements, and then designs and implements solutions to close those gaps and ensure ongoing conformity.
