Compliance Services
BluePrint HelpDesk can help small business owners to stay on top of increasing regulatory demands within budget constraints. This service will help your business perform efficiently while ensuring accountability and integrity.
HIPAA Security
The Administrative Simplification provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA, Title II) requires the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to establish national standards for electronic health care transactions and national identifiers for providers, health plans, and employers. It also addresses the security and privacy of health data. As the industry adopts these standards for the efficiency and effectiveness of the nation's healthcare system, it will improve the use of electronic data interchange.As a security consulting partner for healthcare IT, we have been providing HIPAA Security Consulting Services even before the final regulations were published. We have a deep understanding of the regulations, HHS’s stated intentions, and the response of the healthcare community at large.
Some of the most prominent hospitals in the state have enlisted us to consult with them throughout the compliance process from GAP Analysis, Risk Assessment, and Remediation Planning, to the actual implementation of Remediation initiatives. As is our constant focus with all of our services, we have tried to provide a comprehensive end-to-end solution. Our compliance process ensures that your hospital will know its true HIPAA Security posture and be provided with practical, cost-effective, and proven solutions in order to achieve compliance.
Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX)
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, also known as the Public Company Accounting Reform and Investor Protection Act of 2002 and commonly called SOX or Sarbox, is a United States federal law passed in response to a number of major corporate and accounting scandals, including those affecting Enron, Tyco International, Peregrine Systems, and WorldCom (recently MCI and now currently part of Verizon Business).
For companies that require the implementation of the internal IT controls to demonstrate SOX compliance, we can help you to do so by following the industry’s accepted best practices. The benefits of this service include:
- We follow cost-effective techniques in sustaining compliance.
- We tailor our services to the unique needs of your business while following best practices in internal audits.
- We ensure consistent assessments.
PCI
Because of these security breaches, the major credit card companies - American Express, Discover, MasterCard and Visa - decided to create regulations to help prevent the theft of consumers' data. The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standards were created by MasterCard and agreed to in 2004 by the four major credit card companies. Each of the credit card companies has its own term for these standards. On June 30, 2005, the regulations took effect.
The American Express program is called Data Security Operating Policy (DSOP); the Discover program is called Discover Information Security and Compliance (DISC); the MasterCard program is called MasterCard Site Data Protection (SDP); and the Visa program is called Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP).
For companies that require the implementation of internal IT controls to demonstrate PCI compliance, we can help you to do so by following the industry’s accepted best practices. The benefits of this service include:
- We follow cost-effective techniques in sustaining compliance.
- We tailor our service to the unique needs of your business while following best practices in internal audits,
- We ensure consistent assessments.
