Boost Your Risk Management Practices With Our HIPAA Security Rule Bundle

When we say “HIPAA Security Rule,” what comes to mind? It might be best practices around safeguarding electronic data and patient health information. But what about ensuring employees, visitors, and contractors have the right badge access throughout your building? That’s addressed in the Security Rule too.

Many organizations consider their work done after performing a HIPAA Security Analysis, but that’s only the beginning. Identifying risks is useless if you don’t have a plan in place to mitigate and manage them.

The numbers don’t lie – an OCR audit revealed that 94% of covered entities and 88% of business associates failed to implement appropriate risk management activities sufficient to reduce risks and vulnerabilities to a reasonable level.

We want to empower you to stay up to date on the HIPAA Security Rule, so we’re rolling out a compilation of resources, giving you the “greatest hits” of our Security Rule content. Our eBrief bundle, “Your Guide to the HIPAA Security Rule” includes:

• • Administrative safeguards and the five safeguards defined by the OCR
  • Physical safeguards like facility access and device security
  • Access control, encryption, and other technical safeguards
  • Nationwide audit results

HIPAA security practices are complex; we’re here to help you make informed, educated decisions about managing your organization’s risk.
