PolicyMedical And Aegify Offering To Help Prevent Breaches Like Those Experienced By Premera and Anthem Blue Cross
PolicyMedical, delivers policy and procedure management solutions for the healthcare industry. Its flagship software, PolicyManager™, offers its clients a policy management solution for healthcare.
Aegify, a world-leading provider of Cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions for business security monitoring, as well as, risk and compliance management, allows its clients to assess and monitor for any changes that might occur. It allows its clients to validate procedures and regulations, as well as, ensure they are all in place.
The recent partnership of the two providers has allowed them to integrate their two applications, offering its users the best of both worlds.
Typically, security, risk and compliance guidelines have requirements that fall under these three categories:
o Administrative Safeguards
o Technical Safeguards
o Physical Safeguards
Aegify provides a comprehensive framework to support any security and compliance programs, including the above three categories of requirements. PolicyManager, on the other hand, helps enforce any policies that are used for the above categories of requirements for admin, technical, and physical safeguards. Therefore, the integration of the two applications allows the user to seamlessly monitor and manage all three safeguards with complete enforcement. The two applications will allow the information to be passed back and forth, without any disruption that may, otherwise, occur hopping from one application to another.
The recent breach of Premera and Anthem Blue Cross, acts as a reminder that securing and complying, and taking proper measures, when it comes to risk and security, are essential for an organization. Had Blue Cross adopted an application like the PolicyMedical and Aegify offering, that monitors, assesses, and manages all in a single platform, it should have managed to avoid the security breach. This integration will help organizations to be constantly in check with their regulations, and policies, in order to avoid any breaches.
The companies plan to introduce the offering at an upcoming webinar, scheduled for June 4, 2015. For more information about the webinar please click here.
