Security Standards White Papers
Achieving HIPAA Security Standards Compliance by Implementing an ISO/IEC 27000 Series Information Security Management System
Overview This paper has been prepared to provide those organizations having an interest in compliance with the US Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA - 1996, revised 2003) Security Standards, especially those in the business of handling 'Electronically protected health information', with an understanding of the inter-relationship between those Security Standards and the growing series of international standards addressing Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). The paper shows how these ISMS standards can be applied by a business to demonstrate its compliance with the HIPAA whilst providing additional benefits, such as broader assurance across the whole (or a well-defined sub-unit) of an organization's information security management system and certified compliance of that system based upon an internationally-recognized scheme which will be acknowledged by business partners, investors, and customers.
