Regression Testing Essentials for PHI Protection

Regression Testing Essentials for PHI Protection

In this episode of the HIPAA Vault Show, we delve into two pressing issues in the realm of healthcare data security. First, we spotlight the recent ransomware attack on Change Healthcare by the RansomHub gang, marking the company's second major cyber threat. The attackers have compromised 4TB of sensitive data, including information on US military personnel and medical records, and are demanding a ransom with threats of selling the data if their demands are not met. This segment examines the implications for HIPAA compliance and the broader healthcare sector, analyzing how businesses are struggling financially due to delayed insurance payments stemming from the attack.

Round 2: Change Healthcare Targeted in Second Ransomware Attack https://www.darkreading.com/cyberattacks-data-breaches/round-2-change-healthcare-targeted-second-ransomware-attack In the second part of the episode, we focus on the importance of regression testing in safeguarding Protected Health Information (PHI). This discussion emphasizes why business leaders should take the helm in ensuring that applications handling PHI not only meet functional requirements but also comply with the HIPAA Security Rule. We'll explore the key aspects of regression testing and discuss strategies for integrating these processes into the broader business strategy to enhance PHI security and ensure compliance.

Is GoDaddy HIPAA Compliant? Conditional Compliance Explained. EP. 48

Is GoDaddy HIPAA Compliant? Conditional Compliance Explained. EP. 48

This week on the HIPAA Vault show, we delve into the complex landscape of HIPAA compliance, especially when it comes to service providers like GoDaddy. Is GoDaddy HIPAA compliant? It's a question that many in the healthcare sector find themselves asking, given the critical nature of following HIPAA regulations. We unpack this nuanced topic by examining GoDaddy's offerings, particularly highlighting that their HIPAA compliance is conditional, depending on the specific products or services being used. Specifically, we explore how GoDaddy's Business Associate Agreement (BAA) applies only to their Office 365 Email offerings, leaving their website hosting services outside the compliance boundary. We also guide our viewers through the essential components required to make a website truly HIPAA compliant, touching on crucial elements such as data encryption, access controls, audit trails, backup and disaster recovery, and physical security. The episode emphasizes that achieving compliance is an ongoing journey, involving more than just technical solutions but also encompassing employee training and the establishment of effective policies and procedures.
