Security and Privacy of SPII is governed by several laws and industry regulations. Healthcare industry, due to the nature of the information it collects, processes, stores, shares, and manages, faces some of these stringent requirements for ensuring security and privacy of SPII.

Recent increase in data breaches and cyber threats have increased the cost of managing information “Security & Privacy” for industries across the spectrum. Although these threats are not targeted to a particular industry or a business division, but most of these attacks do target systems and applications managing and maintaining sensitive personal information.

Healthcare industry as user and manager of some of the most Sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (SPII), such as; heath information of individuals, credit card data, social security numbers etc., about individuals (patients), business partners (service Providers) and employees has to comply with several laws and industry regulations.

Healthcare industry heavily relies on technology in providing quality care to their patients and ensuring compliance with security and privacy laws and regulations. These technological innovations have enabled healthcare providers, patients, payers and researchers communicate, collaborate and instantaneously exchange information.

Although, integration of systems and applications has enabled correlation of patient health data to provide better patient care with lower costs of delivery. These advances have also increased the risk to confidentiality and integrity of the highly Sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (SPII).
