100% HIPAA Compliant File Sharing and Storage
Why is HIPAA compliance important?
If you’re a professional working in the healthcare, legal, or insurance industries, you likely understand the importance of complying with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). The regulation exists to protect the privacy of the personal information of patients in the USA.
Here is a quick summary of HIPAA requirements with regards to safeguarding data:
- An administrator must provide proper staff training and have complete control over who has access to information
- There must be restricted access to the data facilities and devices that store private information
- Proper cybersecurity measures must be enforced to prevent breaches of information
What are the penalties for HIPAA violations?
HIPAA violation penalties vary depending on the category of the violation, which is broken down into 4 tiers.
