HIPAA compliance is the main goal for a healthcare-related company to have necessary safeguards to protect the privacy and security of Protected Health Information (PHI). The HIPAA Privacy Rule provides federal protections for personal health information held by covered entities and gives patients an array of rights with respect to that information.
All healthcare organizations are required to comply with three main standards under an administrative section of the regulation.
Defines the standards for conducting electronic data interchange (EDI) and certain web-based (direct data entry or DDE) administrative health transactions.
A major goal of the Privacy Rule is to assure that individuals’ health information is properly protected while allowing the flow of health information needed to provide and promote high-quality health care and to protect the public’s health and well-being.
requires appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and security of electronic protected health information that is created, received, used, or maintained by a covered entity.
Our following steps and solutions will help companies to understand all the requirements of privacy and security rule so electronic data is protected while it is stored or transmitted due to the safeguards in place to comply with HIPAA.

IT Network is one of the most important elements of any organization and to ensure that your IT network is fully secured and working fine, we will conduct IT Network Penetration testing. This testing consists a process that intentionally attacks your IT Network system with an intention of finding security weaknesses. This process will help in identifying the vulnerability in your IT network security before any real cyber-attack happens.
Vulnerability Assessment is a procedure that helps in identifying and correctly pinpointing the weaknesses in overall IT Network and Communication system.
Using predefined profiles or customized configurations, the scan is run against the external portal facing the Internet or on your internal network. It runs quietly without consuming much network capacity, and in a non-disruptive manner: nothing is modified, and processes operate uninterrupted and as expected.

Ransomware is a type of malware (malicious software) distinct from other malware; its defining characteristic is that it attempts to deny access to a user’s data, usually by encrypting the data with a key known only to the hacker who deployed the malware, until a ransom is paid. After the user’s data is encrypted, the ransomware directs the user to pay the ransom to the hacker (usually in a cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin) in order to receive a decryption key. However, hackers may deploy ransomware that also destroys or exfiltrates2 data, or ransomware in conjunction with other malware that does so.
A recent U.S. Government interagency report indicates that, on average, there have been 4,000 daily ransomware attacks since early 2016 (a 300% increase over the 1,000 daily ransomware attacks reported in 2015). Ransomware exploits human and technical weaknesses to gain access to an organization’s technical infrastructure in order to deny the organization access to its own data by encrypting that data. However, there are measures known to be effective to prevent the introduction of ransomware and to recover from a ransomware attack. We can help with ransomware attack prevention and recovery from a healthcare sector perspective. Our solution will assist covered entities and business associates to prevent and recover from ransomware attacks, and how HIPAA breach notification processes should be managed in response to a ransomware attack.
Our Endpoint Protection Platform provides a multi-layered approach for detecting malware, exploit, and script-based attacks using a combination of machine learning coupled with both static analysis and system-wide behavior monitoring to isolate and mitigate threats in real-time. The management system, which can be deployed either in the cloud or on-premise, provides forensic analysis of threats and allows administrators to quickly resolve attacks through automated remediation and rollback features.

HIPAA Remediation is the next step after identifying the gaps in the area of security. The goal is to address all gaps and meet the regulation requirements. After the risk analysis is complete, it is time to begin prioritizing remediation targets. In the risk analysis process, the gaps are divided into three priorities: High, Medium, and Low. Addressing the issues that are high priority can protect & secure PHI.
Sometimes some of the gaps identified are “quick fixes” without devoting more resources. This helps in moving quickly towards achieving complete HIPAA compliance.
Categorizing the gaps in priority levels will help in planning the timelines, and devoting the time of compliance team members, and budget to complete the projects in a timely manner. It is important to take time and plan the remediation phases properly so there are no delays in the process.
After identifying resources to address the highest priority and easiest issues, schedule resources to address the longer-term remediation targets, as well as those of lower priority or of lesser risk.
After remediation projects are completed, conduct the final audit to make sure you are fully compliant. It is beneficial to use a third party to conduct your final audit to determine your compliance. The network assessment including external internal penetration testing & ransomware protection by the third party will ensure that you did not miss anything.
OCR does not need to understand your environment: they simply need to confirm that you are doing all you are required to do, and fine you if you aren’t. They have no interest in your operations beyond this determination and result. Other audit firms are likewise driven. Neither is concerned with the burden this can create, or whether any efficiencies can be cogenerated along with achieving compliance to offset it. This is precisely where we are different from all the rest. We do care.
We understand the escalating costs you face, the mounting bureaucracy of regulations and paperwork, the increased drive to automate, and the disruptive change that can cause. Most firms do not grasp this because they have no direct experience themselves. We know the challenges you face because we have been there ourselves. That is why we work with and for you to achieve these goals: get you compliant and set it up to stay that way by building it into your processes.
Our techniques are the industry-standard, time-proven methods used by all firms:
We interview your in-house experts to determine their knowledge, awareness, and engagement with the importance of these requirements to gain a sense of the environment. We share with them our knowledge about the regulations to enhance their knowledge.
We examine your policy and guidance documentation to ensure that the regulatory requirements and properly embodied in them so that you have established the correct framework for performance, internal enforcement, and corrective action when needed.
We observe your staff at work as part of our gaining familiarity with your environment and to ensure that what we found in your documentation we actually find being practiced by your workforce.
We substantively test various parts of your automated systems to ensure that the stated specifications to support privacy and achieve the requirements of the Security Rule are in place and functioning correctly.
Our process verifies that all the requirements are being met regularly and reliably so that your expectations are being met and so that you can be confident by knowing rather than trusting that things are working properly.
The process is the same for both Covered Entities and Business Associates. One standard for all appropriate to each operational context means the Covered Entity can have the needed assurance that their Business Associates are meeting the requirements just as they are, thus having greater peace of mind and greater risk control at all levels.
