How does XyLoc help my organization reach HIPAA compliance?
The proposed HIPAA regulations will require healthcare organizations to implement administrative, physical and technical procedures and safeguards to guard the integrity, confidentiality and availability of patient data. Access control policies and procedures will play a large part in HIPAA compliance. XyLoc MD’s proximity-based access control helps organizations prepare for the forthcoming final HIPAA regulations without forcing healthcare works to engage in lengthy logon/logoff procedures necessary to ensure network and patient data security. The proposed regulations call for organizations to implement physical access controls, guidelines for workstation use and physical security of workstations to prevent unauthorized access of information. The guidelines currently call for information access control and auditing capabilities. XyLoc MD was designed with these requirements in mind, and provides the heart of a complete security solution that meets all of the HIPAA requirements.
