HIPAA Server Compliance Automation for PHI Protection

Ensure HIPAA server compliance and protect PHI with zero production risk.

The Challenge

HIPAA server compliance is mandatory for any healthcare provider, health plan, or business associate handling Protected Health Information (PHI). To achieve HIPAA server compliance, organizations must implement strict physical, administrative, and technical safeguards that protect PHI confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Organizations must:

  • Implement and maintain secure configuration standards
  • Protect PHI confidentiality, integrity, and availability
  • Enforce access controls and audit trails
  • Address known vulnerabilities and prevent breaches

The challenge? Manual server hardening is time-consuming, error-prone, and increases the risk of downtime or misconfigurations that put sensitive health data at risk. Organizations need a scalable, automated way to meet HIPAA safeguards without disrupting clinical operations.

Protected Health Information

CalCom’s Hardening Suite (CHS) solution helps organizations comply with HIPAA by enhancing server security, reducing vulnerabilities, and implementing strict access controls to ensure only authorized personnel can access Protected Health Information (PHI).

Optimize Hardening with Minimal Disruption

The CHS proprietary ‘Learning’ mode identifies why an object cannot be hardened, marks it, and saves it as an exception. It then compares various policies for a single server, allowing you to select the strictest hardening policy that won’t impact or disrupt operations.

Monitoring and Compliance

Regularly updating servers with the latest security patches is essential for protecting against vulnerabilities and maintaining HIPAA compliance. CalCom’s, server hardening solutions offer logging and monitoring features that track server access and changes, supporting the audits required by HIPAA and ensuring a clear record of security incidents.

CIS Compliance Q&A

What is HIPAA compliance?
HIPAA compliance means meeting the requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which sets national standards for protecting protected health information (PHI).
Who must follow HIPAA compliance requirements?
Any covered entity, including hospitals, clinics, insurers, and healthcare clearinghouses; as well as business associates such as IT vendors, cloud service providers, and consultants that process or store PHI, are required to comply with HIPAA security and privacy rules.
What are the key HIPAA security requirements?
HIPAA mandates administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. These include access controls, audit logging, encryption of data, employee training, ongoing risk assessments, and documented security policies. Many organizations use HIPAA compliance software or server-hardening tools to enforce these controls.
What happens if an organization is not HIPAA compliant?
Non-compliance can lead to penalties ranging from thousands to millions of dollars, regulatory investigations, legal liability, and reputational damage. Security breaches can also cause downtime, operational disruptions, and loss of patient confidence.
How does CalCom help with HIPAA compliance?
CalCom’s automated server hardening and compliance solutions simplify HIPAA compliance by enforcing secure configurations, detecting misconfigurations, and generating compliance reports.
