Why Vulnerability Management Program is Important? For reaching out globally for business pursuits, most business organizations depend on an open and accessible internet. The result, cyber attacks and security threats today have increased phenomenally. Businesses can undergo severe losses if a hacker or a third party intruder gets access to a website, privileged account ID, or essential consumer data. Furthermore, with the increase in health care forgeries, health care enterprises need to secure confidential patient data, lest they are misused. The network has made it crucial for enterprises to resolve network vulnerabilities on a regular basis. In case an organization cannot ensure security of critical data from unwarranted security attacks, they may witness penalty from legal authorities. Therefore, today s organizations need to take adequate steps to enhance their e-Governance and offer data safety, making vulnerability management a pre-requisite. Advanced vulnerability progr

Vendor Management augments Secure Business Environment Business processes increasingly involve use of information and communication technologies within and outside of the organizations for enriched and instant communication for business transactions. Business partners now span globally across geographical boundaries. The healthcare industries increasingly depend on business skills outside of their core areas, for business growth. Globalization has facilitated vendors to be involved in various aspects of the business transaction with access to critical business data, personal or private health information of the workforce. Vendor Management, therefore, as a discipline is now emerging as an involved and integrated process of the overall business management of the organization. Under such circumstances the security and privacy of data access and transfer is more than important today. In such a scenario, vendor management is a challenge faced by these new age enterprises.

Understanding IT Security and Compliance Management Policies The modern day complex and competitive business environment has compelled the U. S state and federal agencies to act to avert inaccurate reporting, privacy breaches, corruption and other fraudulent activities prevalent in the industry. The increased rate of these incidents had made the government to act strict by implementing rigid policies such as HIPAA, HITECH, ISO, PCI and many more.

Powerful Solutions That Make IT Compliance More Effective The rapidly changing IT environment has made IT compliance a complex matter in most enterprises. Compliance is a reality affecting organizations of all sizes for conforming to rules and regulations, particularly with the use of information technology. Most businesses have diverse security needs for risk visibility. Studies indicate that a large number of enterprises do not monitor security, mainly due to high TCO, lack of automation with poor risk management, and lack of adequate integrated solutions. Without adequate compliance management and policies in place, organizations take on enormous long term risk at the expense of any short term cost advantage. While failure to comply can trigger penalties, embarrassing public disclosure of breaches, and other potential damages to an enterprise, there is a pressing need for enterprises to address compliance issues effectively with a successful solution. Enterprises are finding w

Being HIPAA Compliant Against All Odds Technology-led health industry has definitely led to faster access and processing of patient records and data. However, the industry is continuously plagued by large number of security breaches in the recent past. The major cause has been identified as the loss or theft due to unencrypted data. Though government regulations demand that health industry maintain the critical information about the their customers in encrypted formats, tracking of the major health information breaches indicates that most of the breach incidents involved the unencrypted information in the storage media. Despite strict regulations, the encryption costs and lack of awareness of security risks to the system, customers and the enterprise as a whole, there are a number of enterprises who still continue to store patient health information in unencrypted formats. However, with the authorities combing down operations on HIPAA compliance with huge penalties and strict acti

Threat Management Solutions for Complete Protection against Pervasive Cyber-Threats Threats to systems and networks worldwide have been on the rise. With the complexity of Internet security rapidly increasing, the complexity of security solutions is increasing manifold too. There are scores of vulnerabilities identified that can pose a threat to any organization. With technology advances, more and more companies are storing business and individual information on computers than ever before. This dependence on IT has in turn resulted in cyber criminals evolving rapidly with an increased sophistication of attack leaving users completely open to large risks. Earlier, a simple firewall would have done the trick to ensure that your business is kept far away from trouble. But, the usual scanners are not equipped to identify these vulnerabilities as they are equipped to cover a small portion of the issue, which is identifying operating system and application vulnerabilities.

Increase your Security Quotient with Compliance Management Solutions There are a myriad of regulations affecting the healthcare industry regardless of whether your enterprise is a public company, private company or federal agency. With the vital need to adhere to the regulations such as HIPPA/HITECH etc. , it is apparent that the regulatory compliance initiatives have become more stringent and complex. The main purpose of these regulations is to protect personally identifiable information (PII) as it moves through the healthcare system. As the need to protect the privacy of employees or patients involves access to the electronic information, healthcare organizations, including providers, payers and clearinghouses, and covered entities need to firmly comply with the Privacy Rule. Failure to comply may not only result in regulatory actions, but also direct business loss from lawsuits, damage to reputation and degradation of the public’s trust. Penalties in the form of expensive fine
