About this listen
In this episode of Compliance Technologies, we continue the HIPAA series with a focused look at the HIPAA Security Rule and what it actually requires in practice.
The Security Rule governs how electronic protected health information (ePHI) must be safeguarded through administrative, physical, and technical controls. Rather than prescribing specific tools, HIPAA requires organizations to assess risk, implement reasonable and appropriate safeguards, and continuously review how systems protect sensitive health data.
This episode explains how the Security Rule functions as a feedback loop between risk, safeguards, and system behavior, and why flexibility in implementation does not mean flexibility in responsibility.
If you work with healthcare systems, data, or compliance, this short episode clarifies what the Security Rule is really asking and why consistent protection matters more than perfect controls.
