Healthcare organizations face many challenges when trying to meet the requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). To be in compliance, they must prove their diligence in managing information security risks. At the same time, they need to achieve this level of security without committing significant time and resources.

Lumeta’s Network Assurance solutions provide a complete view of network connectivity on an ongoing basis. With IPsonar, organizations can use this information to create a baseline and subsequent deltas that demonstrate the alignment of policies and controls against network operation reality as the infrastructure evolves.

Lumeta’s Network Assurance solutions correspond to HIPAA requirements such as:

• Information systems housing Protected Health Information (PHI) must be protected from intrusion
  Manage risk by visualizing how changes in the infrastructure may create misalignment between security policies and defenses.
• Information technology documentation should include a written record of all configuration settings of the components of the network, because these components are complex, configurable, and always changing
  Adapt your infrastructure by creating a network baseline to drive risk out of ever-evolving networks and ensure the deployment of a secure set of changes and accompanying defenses.
• Organizations must document risk analysis and risk management programs
  Audit your overall security process with a network risk scorecard and take corrective action to continuously improve your organization’s security posture.
