Sleep Better Knowing Your Data Is Secure
Have you heard about the HIPAA and PCI fines currently being levied? A small ENT Practice in Massachusetts just got hit for $1.5M. And as of 2013, any “Business Associate” of a HIPAA regulated business can also be fined for violations.
Data security is serious business. If you accept credit cards, handle private information about your clients, or work with any business that does, you need to have your network locked down and up to PCI and HIPAA Standards. Here’s an easy way to do that: Get the cloud. We handle the hard part and teach you how to do the rest. Our cloud solutions meet all requirements to the highest standard of data security.
It’s in our best interest to keep you from getting fined. As your Business Associate, if you aren’t in compliance, neither are we.
True Story
A marketing and promotions company recently turned to us when they realized they had been hacked. They were storing credit card information on their local server; lo and behold, it all got stolen. They did not have intrusion detection or constant monitoring on the server, and the hack went unnoticed until the bread crumb trail of bogus charges led back to them. As you can imagine, their clients were pissed.
Now, this company is facing the wrath of the PCI Security Standards Council and will be heavily fined. Had they been subject to HIPAA rules and regulations, the fines would be even steeper. Though you may not know it, you’re probably subject to either HIPAA or PCI rules. PCI covers any business that accepts credit cards. HIPAA covers any business that handles Protected Health Information (PHI), and any company that works with or for a business that handles PHI. To ensure your data is completely secure, make the switch to the cloud.
