Healthcare - Go Beyond HIPAA Compliance
Ransomware attacks on healthcare facilities cost $77.4 Billion dollars in downtime according to the research firm Comparitech, published Oct. 27, 2023. Insufficient data protection costs the global economy 400 billion dollars per year and 4 million dollars per breach for companies in the healthcare industry. The healthcare industry is among one of the most targeted industries for cybercrimes. It is up to every medical facility to protect patient data.
To achieve this for medical facilities, the implementation of a robust data security system is essential. Ciphertex® is dedicated to enhancing healthcare security and eliminating vulnerabilities in patient and medical data.

Why do healthcare organizations choose Ciphertex Data Security®?
According to a report from the Ponemon Institute, sponsored by IBM, the cost of data breaches is trending upward. Healthcare companies fared the worst of any industry with the average cost per data breach at $10.93 million.
The report went on to disclose that “In healthcare, the cost of detection was high because many of these organizations were ill-prepared, in terms of both the tools and the expertise to understand the root cause of the breach,” explained Larry Ponemon, chairman and founder of the Ponemon Institute.
Post data breach costs were high because of regulatory disclosure requirements as mandated by the HHS [U.S. Department of Health and Human Services] and the OCR [Office for Civil Rights]. Healthcare organizations are also being targeted by malicious and criminal attacks due to the value of the information and knowledge that security is not typically the best within these organizations.

Why Do You Need Ciphertex Data Security®?
Ciphertex® presents a best-in-class secure medical data archive solution that lowers the cost of data retention within an easily managed and encrypted, portable product for medical clients. With unparalleled high performance, we offer a fast transfer solution that ensures data is available in a hurry when needed.
Passed in 1996, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations are divided into four sections, two of which are privacy and security. The Privacy Rule mandates policies and procedures to ensure the safety of Protected Health Information (PHI) in all forms by healthcare. The Security Rule focuses on purely electronic PHI (ePHI) to ensure confidentiality and integrity while maintaining availability. Physical safeguards of data backup, disaster recovery, and emergency procedures for ePHI were created to comply with the Security Rule and to prevent confidential data from being accessed without having the correct encryption key. Ciphertex® solutions, therefore, meet all current healthcare data protection requirements.

What healthcare solution can Ciphertex Data Security® offer you?
| Solution | Benifits | Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Data backup and redundancy | Failure violates HIPAA 164.308(a)(7)(ii)(A) which is a required compliance measure with fines up to 1.5 million dollars. | Reduce risk exposure and gain the ability to find and access critical patient data when needed |
| Hardware based AES-256 bit Encryption | Hardware encryption prevents cold boot attacks, malicious code, and brute force attacks, all of which are hacking attacks, the leading cause of data breaches in the healthcare industry. | Aid in eliminating the cost to resolve a breach which can be 10 times as much as the breach itself, or roughly up to 40 million dollars. Faster performance and data transfer for data mobility and more efficient data storage methods. |
| Real-time remote replication | Real-time or scheduled data backups happen in reduced time for better backup efficiency. | Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery minimizes risks and fines due to the loss of data or inability to access data. Faster backups bring secure performance and optimization for an efficient and compliant best practice. |
| Scale-out and Scale-Up | Scale-out up to 2 Petabytes+ and provision storage as needed and scale-up by daisy chaining or adding JBODs for storage space on demand. | Data storage growth on demand offers a cost efficient and smart method of handling unstructured data that grows at unpredictable rates. |
