Protect Your Practice with a Security Risk Assessment

Cyber Security in Healthcare is aGrowing Problem

With more healthcare organizations going digital with their data, cyber criminals have developed sneakier and more elaborate ways to access and steal sensitive patient records. If left unprotected, your systems could easily get hacked into, and your practice could become the next victim of a major data breach. In fact, between 2014 and 2015, the number of hacking healthcare data breaches rose from 31 to 56, affecting almost 111 million individuals. These include the Premera Blue Cross data breach, which resulted in 11 million breached records, and the Anthem data breach, which resulted in approximately 78.8 million breached records.

Healthcare data is precious to hackers, which is why phishing schemes and other hacking-related ploys are becoming more popular and cunning. Protected Health Information (PHI) contains sensitive personal information that hackers benefit from stealing. This includes Social Security numbers, account numbers, medical record numbers, and more. To keep your practice protected from devious hackers and cybercriminals, it’s essential to undergo a complete security risk assessment that pinpoints any system leaks, threats, or vulnerabilities.

Benefit from a Complete SecurityRisk Assessment

Healthcare companies remain one of the most targeted sectors by criminals with the continued digitization and sharing of personal medical records. As more healthcare organizations move to the Cloud and store their electronic medical records and other information virtually, stronger security measures must be enforced. Is you practice fully up-to-date with the latest HIPAA standards and cyber security laws? If not, then you could benefit from a complete security risk assessment.

In the healthcare industry, both compliance and security are paramount. If sensitive medical files and records get into the hands of the wrong person, it can be detrimental to both the patient and your company. Maintaining HIPAA compliance should always be a key target for leaders in the healthcare industry. By undergoing a comprehensive security risk assessment, you can detect any data security threats, address employee negligence, ensure mobile device management, and implement data encryption – all things that can help you reach and maintain HIPAA compliance. A security risk assessment keeps your practice up-to-date with the latest HIPAA standards and regulations, which not only helps keep your patient data safe, but also helps you run your business as efficiently as possible.
