Leading health services organizations use SenSage Log Management and SIEM solutions to provide actionable results from massive amounts of log and event data.

SenSage has also worked closely with Cerner to develop P2Sentinel, a log management solution to ensure HIPAA compliance and audit capabilities that Cerner sells globally.

Information security for healthcare is critical. Internal and external threats to the confidentiality, integrity and availability of patient health data are at an all time high. Health care providers, health insurance plans, and even certain types of employers are bound to protect patient records. These compliance mandates are worldwide in scope and include national legislation in many countries such as the audit requirements created by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) enacted by Congress in 1996. As more patient data is on networked systems and databases the pressures to keep the cost of care low while protecting sensitive data have never been greater. The technical and economic challenges of storing terabytes of log and event data, the "systems of record" for healthcare confidentiality, are staggering, and traditional security, log management and data warehouse solutions are poorly suited to address the challenges of both data volume and query access.

Proven at the world's leading health services organizations

Leading health services firms around the world, including the British National Health Services (NHS), the US Department of Veterans Affairs and many other large health care providers use SenSage Event Data Warehouse solutions to reduce Security, Compliance and Operations risks at a fraction of the cost of traditional security, log management and data warehouse solutions. New SenSage Business Data Intelligence enable organizations to make better business decisions that increase top and bottom line performance. The Privacy sections of many regulations such as HIPAA outline the access restrictions of data known as Protected Health Information (PHI) which are broadly defined as any part of a patient's medical record or payment history. The Security Rule sections specifically outline the types of security precautions that must be followed and include:

  • Physical Safeguards- controlling physical access to protect against inappropriate access to protected data
  • Technical Safeguards - controlling access to computer systems and enabling covered entities to protect communications containing PHI transmitted electronically over open networks from being intercepted by anyone other than the intended recipient
