Security Tools White Papers

Identity Management and HIPAA Compliance

Overview Many industries are today undergoing sweeping changes due to increased governmental regulations that have a dramatic impact on their business processes as well as IT infrastructure. One of the most important of these regulations is the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act, known as HIPAA. It often requires significant process and technology changes for any healthcare company that manages and processes private health information. A major goal of the HIPAA regulations is to ensure the privacy of any protected health information (PHI) for any individual that is collected, processed, and transmitted between healthcare organizations.
