Security Challenges
Healthcare providers have been dealing with privacy matters for quite some time and are required to comply with The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) Privacy Rule. Regulatory requirements continue to apply pressure to the healthcare industry, as the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act portion of the American Recovery adn Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) has a very aggressive schedule to meet the oft-stated deadline of all US citizens having an electronic record of their health by end of 2014.
The double-edged sword of health care providers and their business affiliates to keep patient personal identifyable information electronically and easily accessable but secure and protected from growing security threats poses a significant and costly challenge. Praetorian Security Group's expertise in regulatory compliance and risk assessment and mitigation can help healthcare providers with this daunting task.
