❓ Frequently Asked Questions

HIPAA Compliance FAQs

Clear answers to common questions about healthcare data security and regulatory requirements.

Who needs to comply with HIPAA? +

HIPAA applies to covered entities (healthcare providers, health plans, healthcare clearinghouses) and their business associates (vendors, contractors, cloud providers) that handle PHI or ePHI. If you collect, store, or transmit patient health data, you likely fall under HIPAA jurisdiction.

What happens if we don't comply? +

Non-compliance can result in severe financial penalties ranging from $100 to $50,000 per violation, with annual caps up to $1.5 million. Criminal penalties, loss of patient trust, mandatory corrective action plans, and reputational damage are also significant risks.

Does HIPAA require encryption? +

Encryption is an "addressable" specification under the Security Rule. While not strictly mandatory in every scenario, it is considered the industry standard for protecting ePHI in transit and at rest. Failing to implement it requires documented risk mitigation, making it practically essential.

How often should we conduct a HIPAA risk assessment? +

The HHS recommends a formal risk analysis at least annually, or immediately following significant changes to your systems, infrastructure, or business processes. CyberVault provides continuous monitoring to supplement annual assessments with real-time threat tracking.

Can CyberVault help with cloud-based EHR/EMR systems? +

Yes. We specialize in securing cloud-hosted and SaaS-based healthcare applications. We ensure proper BAA execution, configure IAM controls, validate audit logging, and monitor for unauthorized access patterns specific to cloud EHR/EMR environments.
