Security Solutions | Security Compliance

Some laws hold organizations accountable for protecting the confidentiality of personal information entrusted to them by consumers. Other measures require companies to document financial decisions and transactions including who took part in related online activities. Still other directives govern the use of digital signatures as valid and binding substitutes for handwritten signatures, thereby eliminating paperwork and maintaining end-to-end electronic processes. Marco can help you address your organization's compliance challenges and assist in creating strategies for complying with federal regulations.

Healthcare Industry

In 2003, all healthcare entities that process health-related data were required to comply with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). The ultimate objective of HIPAA is to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of health information systems through improvements in electronic health care transactions as well as to maintain the security and privacy of individually identifiable health information.

Privacy of computer systems and Internet connections requires constant knowledge of the status of those systems — whether or not firewalls are locked down, patches are up-to-date, linked partners are living up to their contractual commitments, or secure online communications are always encrypted. Marco has two certified HIPAA administrators on staff to provide answers and security solutions to these concerns.
