See All Services Meet The Team

Overview

For health care entities, protecting patient and other sensitive information has never been more important, as ransomware attacks, cybersecurity threats and data breaches steadily increase. At the same time, access to individual and population health data is crucial for organizations looking to deliver more efficient, cost-effective care to customer and patient populations. We help you build sophisticated information governance programs that unlock the benefits of Big Data while proactively reducing risk and mitigating exposure in the event that cybersecurity incidents occur. Our team has experience investigating some of the largest data breaches on record. We can help you avoid becoming a cautionary tale through data breach prevention and response services, data security training and education for your staff, and HIPAA and other federal and state privacy law compliance counseling and policy development for your entire enterprise. We also guide you through data use and third-party vendor agreements to meet applicable data protection standards. By safeguarding your organization, we can help you better care, serve and protect your patients — and secure your competitive financial data, records and reputation.
