HEALTHCARE
Automatically Ensure Compliance, Lockdown Health Information, and Secure Patient Care Devices
Mitigate the data vulnerabilities from patient portals and other third-party risks
Every industry is vulnerable to data breaches, but the healthcare industry has long stood out above the rest. The large quantity of information and the value of that information makes it a prime target. Stolen health information sells for up to 100x more than other personal data. Unlike credit card info, medical data cannot be changed or reset once it is available on the black market.
Vulnerability also extends to patient care. Many ailments are treated with cloud-based monitoring services or embedded IoT devices. Unfortunately, medically necessary IoT devices can and are being compromised by cyberattacks capable of disrupting the delivery of lifesaving health services.
VaultCore’s best-in-class capacity to manage millions of encryption keys makes it the world’s most scalable key management solution and perfect to handle the large volume of encryption keys necessary to adequately protect and manage valuable patient care records whether stored on-premise, in transit or in the cloud.
Adhering to complex HIPAA regulations, including encryption control of who has access to what information can be daunting. VaultCore’s hierarchy-based access control allows administrators to set policy to automatically deploy and enforce who has access to what information across an entire organization or respond quickly to a threat by instantly revoking access at the most granular level.
FDA guidelines now require devices be self-encrypted, but an extra layer of protection is still necessary to ensure protection. VaultCore allows for encryption keys to be generated and stored away from patient care devices. Offloading the burden of encryption key generation and storage away from components adds a secondary and necessary layer of protection to a patient’s healthcare.
Audit trails or reporting on all access activity to healthcare data doesn’t have to be cumbersome. VaultCore allows providers to not only meet this HIPAA requirement, but simplifies audit reporting on data access by creating a centralized, simple-to-use, web-based User Interface (UI) from which to pull all access reports.
