NOTICE: Speedy SSD’s assists to our clients with the core steps that works toward full HIPAA technology compliance. In no way can we be held liable for any HIPAA violations a healthcare organization may incur while under our support. The reason being; current HIPAA rules at times can be inexact, and violation enforcement is dependent on the digression made by the individual HHS representative. When healthcare organizations puts in place the vital technology steps and implements end-to-end encryption for all electronic client data (apps, text, email, cloud/LAN network), current Windows updates are applied, security awareness and training, responsibility protocols, security incident procedures, endpoint (primarily ransomware) protection and security event management software is installed, your HHS representative is put in a favorable position to approve HIPAA compliance. Thus, our focus is to assist healthcare to implement safeguards that serve to prepare organizations, to the best of their ability, against possible data breaches.
