Independent third-party certifications and assessments like these are incredibly important for the healthcare industry.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (PRWEB) April 25, 2022
iatricSystems Inc., a healthcare technology company committed to helping healthcare organizations better protect patients, connect systems, and optimize EHR usage, today announced that its patient privacy monitoring software Haystack™ iS earned the Cybersecurity Transparency Award from healthcare research and insights firm, KLAS Research. The evaluation was conducted independently by Censinet, the leading intelligent risk network for healthcare.
“Vendor risk management is critical to the security posture of a healthcare organization,” said Rob Rhodes, Executive Vice President at iatricSystems. “We’ve all seen instances where exploitation of a vendor’s network has caused major problems for hospitals. We want our customers to understand that we take cybersecurity very seriously and believe transparency in this regard shows the value of being good partners with our clients. As someone with a background in cybersecurity, in both education and earning several cybersecurity certifications over the years (CISSP, HCISSP), I make security a top priority for iatricSystems. As innovators, we choose to lead rather than follow in our efforts to advance cybersecurity and transparency.”
Haystack™ iS earned the Mature rating across categories such as Data Protection, Identity and Access Management, Legal and Regulatory, and Resiliency. These categories are vital for healthcare organizations to better protect patient data and prevent potential breaches. Earning a Mature rating in Data Protection, for example, indicates a strong commitment to protecting PHI and other types of sensitive data. Whereas a Mature rating in Identity and Access Management indicates Haystack™ iS reduces the threat of internal and external breaches caused by inappropriate access or exploited employee credentials.
When asked about what the Cybersecurity and Transparency award means for iatricSystems, Rob Rhodes responded: “Independent third-party certifications and assessments like these are incredibly important for the healthcare industry. I applaud the efforts of KLAS and Censinet to make vendor cybersecurity efforts transparent. As a former healthcare CIO I understand how important it is to have an unbiased view into the cybersecurity posture of your partners.”
