How to Secure Healthcare Data

HIPAA-regulated healthcare entities must secure patient data through administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. However, insider threats are the biggest challenge. According to Verizon’s report, 35% of data breaches in healthcare were caused by insiders in 2023. Measures to manage this threat include security policies, hiring screenings, auditing, and employee training. Specialist software, such as Safetica’s solution, can support healthcare organizations by controlling and monitoring access to sensitive data, rapidly detecting unauthorized access and errors, and providing instant alerts for security incidents.
