Every feature in HIPAA Defender maps directly to a regulatory requirement. No filler. No unnecessary complexity. Just the tools you need to be compliant.
HIPAA Defender covers the Security Rule, Privacy Rule, Breach Notification Rule, HITECH Act, and aligns with NIST frameworks and OCR audit protocols. Below is a detailed breakdown of how the platform addresses each regulatory area.
The Security Rule establishes standards for protecting ePHI. HIPAA Defender covers all three safeguard categories with mapped controls, risk assessments, and implementation tracking.
Risk analysis, risk management, sanctions policy, information system activity review, workforce security, information access management, security awareness and training, security incident procedures, contingency planning, and evaluation.
Facility access controls, workstation use and security, device and media controls including disposal and re-use procedures.
Access control (unique user ID, emergency access, automatic logoff, encryption), audit controls, integrity controls, person/entity authentication, and transmission security.
Policy and procedure documentation, retention requirements (6 years), update and review tracking, and availability to workforce members.
The Privacy Rule governs the use and disclosure of PHI. HIPAA Defender manages patient rights, authorization tracking, minimum necessary compliance, and privacy practices documentation.
HIPAA Defender implements the complete breach notification workflow including the 4-factor risk assessment, notification timelines, and reporting requirements.
While you can't prevent an investigation, you can be prepared for one. HIPAA Defender ensures your compliance documentation is organized, complete, and readily accessible.
The HITECH Act expanded HIPAA's reach and increased penalties. HIPAA Defender incorporates HITECH requirements throughout the platform.

Security controls aligned with NIST's guide for implementing the HIPAA Security Rule. Maps NIST recommendations to specific platform controls.
