It’s bad enough that your industry is a primary target for cybercriminals. It’s even worse to take little to no action to prepare and protect your organization.
As a healthcare services provider, you have an established IT infrastructure. But how regularly is this infrastructure updated, managed, and, most importantly, kept HIPAA compliant? Let’s face it: poor cybersecurity leads to not being HIPAA compliant, resulting in cybersecurity attacks and breaches down the road. Many organizations assume they follow all HIPAA requirements, but the numbers prove otherwise…
Unfortunately, when it comes to cybersecurity, the majority of healthcare services providers still feel backed into a wall. Knowing the risks of poor HIPAA compliance, many organizations excuse not meeting all requirements due to limited resources, high costs, or relying solely on their current IT department.
Thankfully, we have the solution: a partnership with VC3. Outsourcing your IT security needs means you no longer have to handle HIPAA compliance alone.
