Mobile devices are susceptible to malware attacks, phishing, and other security vulnerabilities just the same as laptops and desktops. The systems most of us have in place are directed at managing the security for laptops and desktops, however. It is important to expand your security controls to address the growing threat that mobile devices introduce to your network and systems regularly. In most cases, it is important to have a "home base" tool that can talk to and monitor the mobile devices

2017/06/23

There are countless times we have covered the "my EHR vendor handles HIPAA for me" misconception. The recent $155 million whistleblower lawsuit settlement between eClinicalWorks (eCW) and the government really brings it home how wrong you can be about EHR vendors. Meaningful Use attestations relied heavily on the vendors supplying proper information. eCW set up thousands of organizations to take a major hit based on the details in this case and it's settlement. Especially, when you take into account

The 5 stages of grief during a cyber attack really do follow the process of dealing with grief in those familiar 5 stages. Many don't realize that ransomware attacks aren't always just the result of someone clicking in an email and running a program. As Erie County Medical Center found out recently, ransomware attacks can come from a hacker being active in your network too. Those 5 stages of grief during a cyber attack for them and others we have seen is what we will be discussing today. We have

A major breach of PHI was announced by a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon's office on Jun 1. There are so many things about this case from the fact that it involved a malicious insider to how many different ways proper HIPAA policies and procedures would have stopped it, if not prevented it completely.

All of those ransomware outbreaks we have been dealing with since last year were overshadowed this past week by WannaCry. This has been called called the most destructive attack ever. The most concerning part is that was how bad it was but the US wasn't hit that hard.

You may not even know about all the applications and support logins that vendors use on your applications, systems, and networks. Vendors may set up admin passwords and share them with their whole staff to support you. If they have unlimited access to the systems out there and the usernames and passwords never expire or log off automatically that is certainly not secure. How do you manage all of those? If there are things that automatically log in and run, what about those? More details at

2017/04/07

Recently, New Mexico passed a new data breach notification law in March. Once it is signed there will only be 2 states that don't have their own notification rules, Alabama and South Dakota. What do all the state laws mean when you are also required to do HIPAA notifications. Most of them say that if you are subject to GLBA or HIPAA the notification laws do not apply to you. But, it is always best to be sure you know what your state requires. HIPAA says that as long as it is more strict than state

All the news about ransomware and hackers usually gets the biggest headlines. But, the ones that fly under the radar may be something you should pay more attention to than the big splashy news. Insiders usually don't have to work hard to plot ways to break into your data, you have invited them in and given them access. A damaging assumption is that you don't have to worry about your insiders. Get more info at HelpMeWithHIPAA.com/97

Call it teleworking, remote access, or mobile access if you have any access to PHI outside of your office, you should have a HIPAA mobile access policy. Any person that accesses you systems and data outside of your internal network should be trained and sign off on commitments to protect your PHI. We've never specifically covered the topic of what should be included in a HIPAA mobile access policy. It is about time we did just that. Learn more at HelpMeWithHIPAA.com/96

Building a culture of a compliance is something we have talked about many times in this podcast. We never looked at it as a community problem. The things we heard about training the human element to build a cyber security culture were very exciting to us. Well, at least to Donna. The concepts they covered about training not just the workforce but training the community as a whole to better understand what cybersecurity really means.

What is HIPAA privacy anyway - Ep 91

2017/02/17

What is HIPAA privacy anyway? The annual reporting deadline for little breaches is up at the end of Feb. That means all those little privacy violations in 2016 must be reported on the HHS website soon if you haven't already done it. Since those little ones often mean so much more than the big ones it made me think it would be a good time to talk about privacy. A recent bizarre case in an Atlanta suburb made me realize just how much we value our privacy but may not realize it until it has been taken
