The National Institute of Standards and Technology, part of the U.S. Department of Commerce, made waves in the cybersecurity world back in 2013 when it released the draft of a framework designed to help direct the U.S. public and private sectors in defending against cybercrime. Recently, NIST and its National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence released another guide that didn’t make as such a splash, but still can be instructive for some in-house counsel.
NIST’s “Securing Electronic Health Records on Mobile Devices” gives organizations involved in the health care sector insights on how to design and implement security systems that protect the myriad personal and health information patients entrust them to collect and keep private. Although fairly technical, the guide helps focus organizations’ conversations around keeping electronic health records protected.
