ABSTRACT:
Compliance with HIPAA requires that organizations implement safeguards and security standards when electronically storing and transmitting data. Although wireless devices are not detailed in HIPAA's security rule, they must be viewed in the entire system for electronically storing and transmitting data.
Non-compliance with HIPAA can affect the integrity and security of an organization's entire IT system. Read this paper to learn about the importance of evaluating the security features and functionality of wireless devices. Combining technologies and security policies can help reduce wireless device vulnerabilities.
Learn best practices for securing mobile devices, including:
- Developing security policies and procedures for mobile devices
- Ensuring end-user acceptance and a balanced policy
- Implementing mobile security solutions to integrate with existing enterprise solutions
