🛡️ HIPAA Compliance Tip: Strengthen Cybersecurity Measures

Enhance Data Protection for Cloud-Based Systems

As healthcare continues its shift to the cloud, threat surfaces expand—so must your defenses. Cyberattacks targeting healthcare have surged, with ransomware incidents affecting 46 million individuals in 2023 alone (HHS OCR). A robust cybersecurity posture is no longer optional—it's a regulatory and operational imperative.

🔐 What to Do:

• Enforce Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Require MFA across all systems handling ePHI. It’s one of the most effective safeguards against credential-based breaches.

• Run Regular Risk Assessments: Conduct HIPAA-compliant risk analyses at least annually—or after significant system changes. Identify weak points before attackers do.

Resilience starts with visibility and layered defenses. Protect your data, your patients, and your business.
