Penetration Testing for HIPAA Compliance
(SaaS for medical institutions)

The nature of the healthcare sector sets even higher security requirements than any other sphere. On one hand, patients' data should be easily accessed by medical personnel, on the other hand, they should never be obtained by unauthorized people with bad intentions.

According to HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) Evaluation Standard a covered entity or business associate is required to perform a periodic technical and nontechnical evaluation. A technical evaluation is typically defined as performing a vulnerability assessment or a penetration test.

Keeping the client's interests at hand, our security professionals prepared a wide range of tests to detect vulnerabilities to malware attacks and suspicious authorization activity that may undermine the functioning environment of the medical institution web system.

To avoid criminal charges against the client’s medical institution and possible fines for non-compliance with HIPAA checklist, during manual pentest and automated vulnerability assessment we put an increased focus on identifying potential security breaches in case of violated privacy and confidentiality of patient data.
