Getting the Facts Straight on HIPAA Compliance

Why do cybercriminals find more value in electronic protected healthcare information (ePHI) than financial services data? According to a private industry notification from the FBI released in early 2014, healthcare data is more valuable on the black market than credit card numbers because the data contains information that can be used to access bank accounts, or obtain prescriptions for controlled substances.

In this whitepaper, we’ll help Covered Entities identify best practices for complying with HIPAA/HITECH rules. Additionally, we’ll demonstrate how they can protect their businesses from cyber threats by assessing the company’s current state of compliance and security, comparing it to best practices, and implementing a plan to bridge the gap, beginning with the most critical threats.
