Aware has enabled our organization to continue collaborating effectively – without compromising the importance of HIPAA regulations.
Chief Risk Officer
A non-profit healthcare network needed a comprehensive solution to manage collaboration data and stay compliant with HIPAA regulations. The need for internal collaboration tools heightened during the pandemic, but employees were haphazardly sharing patient information across these platforms, putting themselves, the network, and patients at risk.
After integrating with Aware, they were able to utilize Signal's features to quickly flag, surface, and investigate inappropriate or sensitive data. Using the application. they were able to identify content that had the potential to violate HIPAA regulations, including screenshots and file attachments.
As a result, this healthcare network is now able to anticipate and proactively resolve future risks, mitigating the potential of violating HIPAA regulations through collaboration platforms, and ultimately reducing the risk of fines, brand damage, and legal exposure.
Reduced Expenses
Since the inception of HIPAA in 2003, violations that resulted in a settlement or civil monetary penalty totaled nearly $135 million.
Improved Risk Posture
Companies with extended detection and response capabilities deployed shortened the breach lifecycle by ~29 days.
Protected Brand
A company's reputation accounts for 63% of its market value.
