Features of Office 365 HIPAA Compliant Email Solution

Simplify HIPAA Compliance

Microsoft Information Protection simplifies compliance with HIPAA especially for protection against data loss. It includes exact data matching capabilities, with which we’ll be better equipped to prevent leakage of specific patient records and not just generic number ranges.

Assess Compliance Posture

Microsoft Compliance Manager in Microsoft 365 compliance center can be used to assess the organization's HIPAA compliance posture and take appropriate actions to minimize risks. It provides assessment templates to simplify the process.

Unify HIPAA Compliant Communications

Healthcare employees often have to share sensitive data, such as health, student information, and other personally identifiable information. Organizations can empower their users with Microsoft Teams and Phone System that meet HIPAA security standards.

Improve Access Control

Access to PHI must be restricted for HIPAA compliance. These controls are available with Azure Active Directory that also allows admins to implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and other such security features.

Secure Cloud Applications

Healthcare organizations use cloud services by Microsoft and third-party providers. With Microsoft Cloud App Security cloud access security broker (CASB), organizations have better visibility and control over data travel and sophisticated analytics for HIPAA compliance.

Support BYOD Program

Microsoft Intune helps in maintain HIPAA compliance as it can compartmentalize work and personal apps on phones that administrative staff can carry. Data can be wiped remotely from Outlook and business apps if the device is lost or leaves the network.

Office 365 and Microsoft 365 plans include advanced threat protection (ATP) solutions. These prevent and respond to cyber threats, protect email, data, and employee identities, and alert IT to unusual behavior.

Leverage Interoperable Solutions

Unlike standalone HIPAA-compliant email solutions, security solutions in Microsoft 365 across Windows 10, Office 365, and Enterprise Mobility + Security are interoperable. Using a single suite saves time and enhances the security posture for better compliance.
