HIPAA Breach Risk Assessments determine whether a Ransomware attack constitutes a HIPAA Breach that triggers Breach Notification Rule reports and notifications. A Ransomware attack is automatically presumed to be a HIPAA Breach unless you do a HIPAA Breach Risk Assessment that demonstrates the attack resulted in only a low probability of compromise to the affected protected health information (PHI). This webinar explains how to do a Ransomware HIPAA Breach Risk Assessment. The Problem Solved by this Webinar The HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) declared that a breach of unsecured PHI is presumed to have occurred when electronic protected health information (ePHI) is encrypted as the result of a ransomware attack on a HIPAA-regulated entity (health care provider, health plan, health care clearinghouse, or business associate). The entity must then comply with the applicable breach notification provisions, including notifying affected individuals without unreasonable delay, the Secretary of HHS, and the media (for breaches affecting over 500 individuals), in accordance with HIPAA breach notification requirements. However, it is not a breach if the ransomware-victimized entity can demonstrate that there is a low probability that the encrypted ePHI has been compromised. This webinar explains how to do that.
