ISO 27799:2016: Securing Healthcare Data at Its Core

ISO 27799:2016 provides specific guidelines for implementing ISO/IEC 27002 within healthcare environments. The standard is designed to address the unique challenges of managing sensitive health information, focusing on critical areas like data privacy, operational continuity, and risk management.

Healthcare organizations, like our partners, face growing cyber threats and heightened regulatory scrutiny. Compliance with ISO 27799:2016 ensures that we adopt best practices tailored to the healthcare sector, including:

• Risk assessment and mitigation specifically for health informatics.
• Robust access controls to prevent unauthorized data breaches.
• Ongoing evaluation and improvement of security policies.

How ISO Standards Work Together to Protect Healthcare Data

Our compliance with ISO 27799:2016 builds on the foundation of ISO 27001, a widely respected standard for information security management systems. According to insights from Advisera, these two standards are deeply complementary:

• ISO 27001 offers a broad framework for managing information security across industries.
• ISO 27799 tailors these practices to the healthcare sector, focusing on PHI and specific regulatory requirements like HIPAA.

By combining the strengths of both standards, we align our security practices with industry-wide requirements while catering to the specific needs of the healthcare sector. This integrated approach equips our platform to manage sensitive information with precision and reliability.
