Maintaining Data Security and Regulatory Compliance

As enforcement tightens and liability grows exponentially, maintaining HIPAA compliance has become mission-critical for IT departments in the healthcare industry.

With mobile computing firmly integrated into the workplace, Electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI) can no longer remain safe behind the corporate firewall. In today's fast-changing healthcare climate, easy access to ePHI is crucial for caregivers. However, both the wireless networks that facilitate caregiving on the move, and the popularity of removable storage devices represent the weakest links in data security - increasing the likelihood of data leakage, and potential but costly HIPAA violations.

As a result, today's primary healthcare IT challenge is: how to make ePHI readily available to caregivers, while still maintaining HIPAA compliance?

Safend Auditor and Protector are designed from the ground up to help healthcare organizations meet the challenges of HIPAA. Seamlessly integrating with existing solutions, Safend monitors and controls the flow of information to and from any endpoint. Safend provides healthcare organizations with detailed visibility and granular control over data transfer from the endpoint via wireless ports and all physical storage devices, providing a comprehensive audit trail of endpoint activity and simultaneously protecting against data leakage.
