Protect your organization and your assets
From solo practitioners to groups with multiple providers and locations, the threats and risks are real. Breaches have become more prevalent magnifying the need to have the proper policies in place.
What is the Security Rule?
The HIPAA Security Rule requires physicians to protect patients’ electronically stored, protected health information (known as “ePHI”) by using appropriate administrative, physical and technical safeguards to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and security of this information. Essentially, the Security Rule operationalizes the protections contained in The Privacy Rule which protects all “individually identifiable health information” held or transmitted by a covered entity or its business associate, in any form or media, whether electronic, paper, or oral.
All covered entities, defined in the HIPAA rules as (1) health plans, (2) health care clearinghouses, and (3) health care providers who transmit any health information electronically, must assess their security risks. Even if an entity employs a certified electronic health record (EHR) technology, they must still put in place administrative, physical and technical safeguards to maintain compliance with the Security Rule and document every security compliance measure.
The assessment should identify, assesses, and lead to the implementation of key security controls in and organization’s applications. It identifies each applications’ security defects and vulnerabilities allowing the organization to address deficiencies and document policies and procedures. It is and integral part of an organization’s risk management process.

Why Your IDS/IPS Isn’t Stopping Breaches (and What to Do About It)
You didn’t deploy intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS) for false alerts, missed breaches, or compliance fines.
Yet here you are—wondering why threats slip through despite “active” monitoring, paying for tools that can’t keep up with encrypted traffic, and facing auditors asking why your logs show gaps during last quarter’s attack.
If you’re in healthcare, finance, legal, or critical infrastructure, outdated IDS/IPS isn’t just noisy—it’s a compliance time bomb inviting data theft, ransomware, and regulatory hell.
Protected Harbor has overhauled dozens of fragile Internet security deployments. The patterns are identical—and the risks are always worse than teams realize.
