[Whitepaper] Salesforce And The HIPAA Security Rule: Securing EPHI In The Cloud

Patients place their trust in the healthcare industry and expect their providers of healthcare and coverage to be good stewards of their health information, including addressing standards set forth by HIPAA to protect the privacy and security of protected health information where applicable. Salesforce recognizes the value and importance of HIPAA to the industry and patients, and takes our compliance with it seriously. In this white paper, we will outline some of the HIPAA Security Rule’s standards for protecting electronic protected health information (ePHI), and introduce how some features of Salesforce’s Services may help customers keep ePHI secure in the cloud.
