Healthcare organizations must understand where and when their organization's electronic data may be at risk, and take the necessary steps to implement appropriate controls. A thorough risk assessment serves as the foundation for development of a security strategy to mitigate risk. The strategy is put into action through specific initiatives that align security with business goals and implement security technology into business processes. The result is an integrated, cost-effective solution that addresses the pressing needs of today's modern healthcare organization.
