Why are our trainings HIPAA-compliant?

• Secawacon training complies with the HIPAA Security Rule by implementing a comprehensive security awareness and training program for all workforce members, including management. This program is designed to meet the requirements outlined in §164.308(a)(5) of the Security Rule, which mandates training on key topics such as guarding against malicious software, reporting discrepancies, and managing passwords effectively. By covering these critical areas, Secawacon ensures that employees are equipped to protect electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI) from reasonably anticipated threats and unauthorized disclosures, as required by HIPAA's General Requirements (§164.306).

•  Additionally, Secawacon training incorporates periodic security updates and reminders to reinforce best practices and maintain compliance over time. This approach helps participants connect security measures to HIPAA compliance, reducing vulnerabilities and ensuring workforce members understand their role in safeguarding patient information.
