Common questions about cloud storage software for healthcare IT

What cloud storage software capabilities matter most for healthcare IT?

+

PHI encryption at rest and in transit, granular access control, audit logging detailed enough for regulatory review, and a vendor willing to sign a Business Associate Agreement covering how the data is handled.

Does cloud storage software need to be HIPAA certified?

+

There is no official HIPAA certification for software. What matters is whether the vendor signs a Business Associate Agreement, encrypts PHI, provides audit logging, and supports access controls that satisfy the HIPAA Security Rule.

How do healthcare organizations evaluate cloud storage software?

+

Start with whether a Business Associate Agreement is available, then work through data residency, network segmentation, compliance reporting depth, and whether the product can run inside restricted clinical network segments.
