This is course two in the ISC2 Healthcare Certificate Specialization.
Patients have expectations of privacy and that they will have some control over their medical information. In a healthcare context, this can include medical images, diagnoses, and notes relating to their treatment, the state of their health-related financial information, and other sensitive facts. To protect this information, organizations apply a range of safeguards to provide assurance that information is shared only if necessary. This includes processes, procedures, techniques, or technologies specifically designed to guarantee the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information. The ultimate objective is to ensure that personally identifiable information (PII) is adequately protected regardless of its state or the system in which the information exists. This course will cover the following learning objectives: Identify essential security and privacy principles. Define the relationship between privacy and security. Describe sensitive data handling.
Welcome to the ISC2 Privacy and Security for Healthcare Organizations! The healthcare industry is relying increasingly on technology to improve patient care, streamline operations, and share information. Just like everything, however, there is a cost. With reliance on technology comes the increased risk of cyber threats, data breaches, and other security vulnerabilities that can compromise the privacy and security of sensitive patient information. As a result, information security has become a critical concern for healthcare organizations worldwide, requiring comprehensive strategies and measures to safeguard patient data from unauthorized access, theft, or misuse. In this context, understanding the importance of information security in healthcare organizations is essential for protecting the privacy and wellbeing of patients while maintaining the trust and confidence of the wider community.
