Driven by provider consolidation and HIPAA compliance, healthcare
data security is a dynamic and constantly-evolving field. Hospitals,
doctors’ offices, managed care facilities, and insurance providers
handle vast amounts of sensitive records and private data on
a daily basis. With mobile computing now firmly in the mainstream,
such Electronic Protected Health Information (EPHI) is no longer
safe behind organizational firewalls.
In today's fast-moving healthcare climate, easy access to
EPHI is crucial for caregivers. Internet access to patient insurance
information from medical office desktops, wireless networks
in large healthcare institutions that facilitate caregivers
on the move, and even patient ID cards that store medical history
– all represent potential points of data leakage.
Effectively protecting this information from growing data
security threats like data leakage, malware, and spyware is
critical not only for regulatory compliance, but also for protecting
organizational brand and reputation.
